Can you batch save as pdf's to excel files

I was wondering if there was a way of batch saving a number of PDF documents to EXCEL files so then we can collate and graph the data from there.

Hi Chris ,
I would request you to refer the following document that explains how to batch save files .

See if that solves your purposes and fixes the issue for you .

How do I save a PDF as an excel file when the PDF is horizontal. Adobe tries to rotate the page, but the data is entered in an horizontal format.

How do I save a PDF as an excel file when the PDF is horizontal. Adobe tries to rotate the page, but the data is entered in an horizontal format.

Thanks for the quick reply. I figured out how to get the desired results by using tagging. For anyone who may reference this post in the future, I went to "Customize" in the top right corner of Adobe, then selected "Create new tool set...", looked under "accessiblity and found the "tag" option. Hit ok, tag is added to the toolbar. Then I highlighted the dataset in the PDF that was relevant to the output format, then clicked "tag", saved as spreadsheet. Sorry I can't provide more details on how tagging works or if there's a more elegant solution available, but I'm sure one's out there.

When I save a PDF as an Excel File, all of the data in the PDF is put into one column (AdobeXI)

Hi, thanks for taking the time...
I'm running a machine with Windows 7, Office 2010, and Acrobat XI. When I save a specific PDF as an Excel workbook, all of the data in the original PDF is sorted correctly in four columns. When the same task is performed on this file on another user's machine, all of the data is sorted into one column. The user has the same versions of Windows, Office, and Acrobat. I've attempted the "Repair installation" option but the problem persists. Any suggestions? Thanks again for helping,

Why can I not save my changes to an Excel file in Numbers?

I opened an Excel file in Numbers and made some modifications. Now, trying to save it to a numbers file, I get the message, "The file 'filename.numbers' couldn't be opened. How can I save this file?

oddly, i needed to restart my computer for another issue (i could not hear any sound no matter what i did). luckily, apple has had the insight to include automatic recovery of files and i was able to re-open these applications and have my unsaved files intact. even more strangely, i was able to save my file with the original name.
as a pc & windows convert, this whole thing was a little disconcerting. perhaps i am just used to that environment, but i have never had something like this happen there. (though perhaps i have had other things... )
thanks for the attempts to help!

How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ?

How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ? Upper part with the image , lower part with a free space in order to take notes for students during presentation or course.
Thanks.

You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
Default: PDF/A 1-b
Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
Check the following check boxes
View Adobe PDf Results,
Add Document Information,
Rely on system fonts only,
Delete Log files for successful jobs.
Select OK
A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
Hope this will help.

Can I make Save as PDF the default printer

I have an application that I only want to Print as "save as PDF." It doesn't seem like I can set this as a default printer for this application or the computer. Am I wrong or will I always need to use the drop down to save as a PDF?

you can't set "save as pdf" as a default printer. you can try CUPS-PDF which creates a virtual pdf printer and you can use that.

Illustrator CS3 can't print/save as PDF

I installed CS3 and the error message:
"The Save as PDF and Save PDF as PostScript options in the Printer Dialog are not supported"
Does this mean that its not picking up on the Adobe Acrobat/Distiller 8?
How would I activate this? Help!!
Same thing with InDesign CS3, can't print/save as PDF.
(this is on a mac)

It may be looking for your RIP ppd, as well as Acrobat 8. Acrobat should have installed all the necessary files, but you might take a look into that. I don't think Distiller is part of the Save-As procedure. You might take a look into "Add-A-Printer" OSX option and select Acrobat 8 there ( although it should have loaded during the install ). Another option is re-install your printer's software and any RIP software ( if available ). Before you do, get whatever updates you can from the manufacturer. It could also mean, after you've done the previous suggestions, you correct permissions on your HD using Apple's Disk Utility. Leave the machine ON overnight so that the Apple Utilities can clean house while you're sleeping.

If you set up your email account(s) as IMAP instead of POP3, then each computer / smart phone can view the mail, but if any of them delete a message (or move it to another folder on the server), the same action will be seen on the other computers.

In Adobe ExportPDF, can you take an existing PDF and delete existing pages? For example, I have a 5-page report and need to delete pages 2-4. Is this possible? Thanks!

Hi,
You can do this with Adobe Acrobat.
If you are using Export PDF it is a long procedure.
You need to convert your PDF in word or powerpoint.
Then you can edit the document & again can create PDF.

Can you still access Adobe PDF SAVED FILES WHEN YOU GET A NEW COMPUTER

Can you still access Adobe PDF SAVED FILES WHEN YOU GET A NEW COMPUTER ? Do you loose the files you have saved on you old computer when you get another computer?

I may not be clear on what you are asking here but I'll try an answer anyway since that's the type of guy I am.
If you have PDF files on your old computer, you will need to transfer them to your new computer. You can use a flash drive or CD if needed.
But again, I think I'm not getting what you are really wanting to know. If I'm not, can you give us some more details?

This may help, but I do note that the printer you state is NOT on the airprint list. You may need to go to the app store and see if Canon has an app that will facilitate printing on a non AirPrint device.

Can you down save from CC (2014) to CS6?

Can you down save from CC (2014) to CS6?

CS6 and CC both work on Mavericks. You should be able to download both if you don't have them installed. If you have them installed and they're not launching, perhaps there's an issue we can fix.
But the only way to go to CS6 from CC 2014 is to save down to CC and then open in CC and save down to CS6.
