My bigest struggle is trying to extract product data from my supplier's pdf documents. I've been cutting and pasting into excel forever & the boss is growing impatient.

This is a slow, tedious and error prone process. When I try to save pdf files as .txt files....the data is a jumbled mess.

The product descriptions on my site are inconsistent & contain typos. And I think I'm getting carpal tunnel

Can anyone recommend a pdf to excel conversion tool?

Any guidance is much appreciated!

Use PDF to Excel http://www.pdftoexcelonline.com/ to quickly and easily create highly-editable XLS files, making it a cinch to re-use tables and spreadsheets from PDF files in Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice, Google Docs, and WordPerfect Office. Best of all, it's entirely free!

I'm trying it now.

Wow! It worked! Since my pdf files were so large, and there;s a size limit, I used CutePDF to save off 15 pages at a time, then upload to www.pdftoexcel.com, and it really worked!

Thank you!

Good for you, and happy that you managed the troublesome .
