Trying to convert pdf to excel

Why did my pdf not covert correctly to excel.  It says the extension is not correct.  I paid for this to do this correctly and I am pushed for time.  Please help

Hi Debbie,
I apologize for the inconvenience with your ExportPDF subscription. Are you still experiencing trouble? What type of doc was the original prior to becoming a PDF? Is it a scan?
Try this: 'getting started' guide and possibly the OCR solution if it is a scan.
Let me know if these work or if you need further assistance.
Kindest regards, Stacy

  • Can't convert PDF to excel (annual subscription purchased)

    Could someone solve my problem.  I purchased onlline PDF export to Excel or Word version.  When I went convert on righ side of screen, I typed my ID and Password.  Non the less, I got an error and could not convert PDF to Excel.  I appreciate it very much if someone could tell me what to do.  By the way, I also downloaded Flash Player. 
    Thanks.

    Good day Suzuko,
    It sounds like you're trying to initiate the conversion via Adobe Reader (which is just fine.)  Could you share the error you're getting?  Alternatively, could you share a bit more information about the problem by filling out File Conversion Issue Form?  If you fill out the form, please include a reference to this thread so we can circle back and share our findings with everyone.
    Kind regards,

    Error message when I try to convert pdf to excel, after three attempts I could only convert one file.

    Hi pdf to excel,
    What is the error that you're receiving when you try to convert? Is it the "Conversion Failure" message? Can you tell me more about the files you're unable to convert? What application created the PDFs? Are there many pages in these these files, or a complex mix of text and graphics?
    It'll also be helpful to know whether you're converting via the ExportPDF website (and what browser you're using), or through Adobe Reader.
    I look forward to hearing back from you, so we can get to the bottom of this!
    Best,

    I need to convert PDF to Excel, however, columns and tabs make many merged cells and many blank columns. In addition to not separate the columns correctly, I see many not separate lines together in the same cell. I'm even thinking that Adobe Acrobat Pro DC has limitations. There is no way to define what points in columns to force break column? Nor create many columns that are useless? How does text to column in Excel, fixed size when we import text, and define where the breaks have columns?

    PDF does not contain columns, rows, formats, styles, or other aspects of word processing or spreadsheet file formats.
    This is because PDF is decidedly not a word processing or spreadsheet file format or something "like" one of those.
    (see ISO 32000 for what PDF "is")
    What can optimize the export of PDF page content is to start with a well-formed tagged PDF (ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant).
    Without that export is what it is and one performs whatever content cleanup is needed using the native application for the export file (MS Word or Excel).

    Hi bert090909,
    Are you trying to convert your files from within Adobe Reader? If so, please make sure that you have the most current version by choosing Help > Check for Updates. Earlier versions of Reader could cause the specific error that you're reporting.
    Please let us know how it goes.

    Subscriber for what? Acrobat? If so, just download it and install. Then start it and log in to activate your subscription version. You may have to wait for a few days for the subscription to be activated if you just purchased it today.

    Hi, am trying to convert pdf into word. I have 30 days trial, however, everytime i try to convert it's asking to subscribe, Why is that, what is the purpose of the free trial?

    Hi oj1,
    Since you mention a free trial, I'm guessing that you have an Acrobat trial (Adobe doesn't offer free trials of the Acrobat.com online services).
    If you do have Acrobat, you can use the Save As command in that application to save directly to Word format.
    Please let us know how it goes.

  • Problema al convertir .pdf a excel

    Buenos dias, estoy teniendo problemas en transofrmar un archivo .pdf a excel. El archivo es un archivo de 25mb aprox. que quiero transoformar a excel con la version de Acrobat XI Pro (trial version). El problema está en que cuando empiezo a convertirlo, no termina nunca y antes de terminar, se tilda y windows mata el proceso. Probé incluso dividiendo el pdf en archivos de 2 hojas (muchisimo mas liviano), lo cual no deberia ser un problema, asi y todo, la conversion no termina nunca.
    Queria comprar el producto pero estoy teniendo mis dudas ya que no puedo transformar un simple archivo.
    P.D.: Estoy usando una pc con un procesador intel i5 y 4gb de RAM por lo que dudo que sea un problema de la pc ya que no me consume muchos recursos.

    El ordenador que he empleado utiliza una placa intel con chipset z76 (Ivy Bridge), la CPU es un  Xeon E3 equivalente a un intel i7 3770 (no incluye gráficos), 16GB de DDR3 @1600MHz y el disco es un SSD. Componentes de penúltima generación, de calidad.
    Supongo que en este proceso influye mucho el procesador y la cantidad de memoria.
    En páginas como esta:
    http://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html
    Se comparan índices entre procesadores, si el procesador es de tipo medio (i3, i5, de hace 2, 3 años, la potencia de cálculo viene a ser la tercera parte, y por ejemplo un Dual Core E6600 @2,4GHz de finales del 2008 es 6 veces inferior).
    Y obviamente no es lo mismo disponer de 4GB de DDR2 a 400MHz o menos, en el ordenador, que 16GB de DDR3 a 1600MHz.
    Si el sistema necesita una cantidad de memoria superior a la disponible libremente, utilizará el disco duro (como memoria virtual) y claro si es lento (5400 rpm) está fragmentado o no tiene mucho espacio libre, el proceso se ralentizará considerablemente. (Esto se ve frecuentemente en procesos en Photoshop cuando la imagen es muy grande y la memoria RAM es insuficiente).
    Te aconsejaría que con una pagina PDF suelta probases a convertir en varios ordenadores y comprobases si existen notable diferencias  de tiempo en función de su potencia y velocidad.
    - Asi que respuestas a tus preguntas:
    - La versión comprada NO es más rápida que la de prueba de Acrobat XI Pro
    - Sobre otras formas de convertir en Acrobat XI: aunque hay varios comandos para convertir en Acrobat, todos al final utilizan las misma rutinas, asi que no hay diferencias de tiempo apreciables.
    -Otros programas: no creo que haya muchos y no los conozco para opinar. Eso si si buscas en Google (Convert PDF to Excel spreadsheet), salen varios.
    -Sobre los servicios de Adobe, bueno supongo que funcionan con herramientas similares, lo único es que en vez de hacerlo uno, te lo hacen ellos, aunque se llevará cierto tiempo, y cobrarán algo por ello.
    - Hardware. Otra solución es evaluar el ordenador que tienes, antiguedad, potencia,... y decidir si uno actual y más potente te resultaría útil para este trabajo y otras tareas.
    Muy rápido resulta seleccionar todo (con la herramienta de Selección) y copiar y luego pegar en un Excel o Word, pero no logré un resultado aceptable en el escaso tiempo que le dediqué.
    En Word el texto salía con tabuladores pero al intentar luego convertir a tabla no me acababa de salir bien. A lo mejor es cuestión  de cuidado y paciencia, que no tuve. Igualmente al pegar en Excel como pide seleccionar un mismo número de filas y columnas que el original, y no conté bien ambas pues tampoco, pero es posible que se pudiera hacer. De todas maneras en mi caso, como he explicado, tras crear la acción y asi no tener que seleccionar un menú 159 veces, el proceso se realiza automáticamente y ví como iba añadiendo archivos xls cada pocos segundos (antes había que crear los 150 pdfs sueltos de una página, un comando en el que tardaba menos de un segundo por página).
    - Al copiar todo (de una página) en el PDF y pegar con una celda seleccionada en Excel, todos los datos de cada fila los copia en una celda, veo ahora que hay un comando en Excel en la pestaña de Datos que se llama Texto a Columnas que parece que reparte los datos de cada fila en sus respectivas columnas.
    - También leo que en lugar de exportar a .xls lo puedes intentar a .xml [XML Hoja de Cálculo 2003], para luego abrirlo en Excel 2007 teniendo instalado el paquete gratuito de Microsoft: Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 File Formats si el guardar como o exportar a xml es mucho más rápida (?) tendría sentido.
    - Aqui tiens un ejemplo de cómo copiar y pegar desde Acrobat a Word y luego a excel.

    Hi Dewey,
    Are you trying to convert via Adobe Reader? If so, are you able to close and restart Reader (you may need to force quit, or use Task Manager to quit Reader if it's truly frozen)? After restarting, choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version.
    And, if updating Reader doesn't help (or you already have the most current version), please try converting that same file using the ExportPDF web interface at https://cloud.acrobat.com.
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Thanks!
