Cant convert pdf to excel, adobe becomes non responding

So im having some issues with adobe acrobat. Everytime i go to convert a certain file from adobe to excel it stops. There will be a loading bar at the bottom which says preparing document for export and every time it stops and freezes at the exact same spot. so it starts loading, stops, then adobe crashes. It ends in adobe not responding, my computer freezing and a big headache. i have made sure the file was undamaged and checked to make sure all text was readable. i looked into the problem and this is what is said,

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).
Be well...

Adobe Standard X1 to convert PDF to Excel

I was advised by an adobe staff member to purchase Adobe Standard X1 to convert PDF to Excel. However the info is placed randomly on the page.

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.

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.
Suzuko

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,
Sara

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.

Adobe Acrobat X does not convert pdf to Excel with floating columns!

I have a Macbook Pro, running 10.6.8, using Acrobat X Pro. I have tried all Adobe suggestions for converting credit card statement saved as Adobe pdf to Excel. None of the recommended solutions separate the data into columns. It places all data, separated by spaces, into ONE column. Adobe should fix this if it is going to claim that the product converts to Excel, and for $300+ it should!

Hello,
you may scan using any ICA-Compliant software (e.g HP Scan, Image Capture, Read Iris, etc) and then launch the file using Adobe Acrobat.
As you mentioned Adobe require TWAIN Drivers, however the HP software only provide ICA Drivers.
As you may find listed within the scanning specification below, Twain drivers are only provided for Windows OS:

Converting PDF to excel using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI

I am trying to convert long but simple PDFs to excel but I keep getting an error message. I have tried disabling OCR, but nothing. Some of my files are rather large, but smaller than 100MB. Any suggestions?

Hi Sara,
I'm working on an Imac 3.2GHz Intel Core i5 running OS X 10.9.5. Sometimes
Acrobat just shuts down, sometimes it stops responding and I have to force
quit, and other times I get this message: "Save as failed to process this
document. No document was created".
I don't know exactly how the PDFs were created, as they come from another
institution. They look as if they were exported from excel though. The
thing is I have several files, all with the same structure, from the same
source, and the small ones were converted without a problem, but the large
ones simply won't. I'm attaching one of the files, perhaps you can see for
yourself something useful.
Thanks,
Mariana

Problem Converting PDF to Excel

Hello, I am trying to convert a pdf file to an excel spreadsheet so that I can do data sort. Pdf has about 7 columns on 13 portrait pages. When converted to excel, I find tha tthesecond column on each page has several columns in it that are apparently merged in different ways. It looks great on the pdf, but will not allow sorts in excel. Excel does not allow me to change these columns without deleting. Have tried cut & paste, etc to no avail. Do I need to do something to the pdf before conversion? The adobe pro x is of no value to me if I can not do this. Thanks

Hi folks. After converting a pdf to excell workbook, I was unable to sort or filter data so it was of no use to me. I tried various ways of copying into excel, but none worked. The message popped up "merged cells are not the same size. Cannot perform sort." If I unmerged as the help message told me, I lost columns of data. Just by experimenting, I found if Ise;ected the format button and selected eliminate format and hyperlinks, I could do the sorts. This was pretty simple and not sure why it is not in the help section as I wasted about 7 hours trying to do the cut and paste. I asked customer support and was told that there were problems with converting to Excel and could probably not do it. Kind of frustrating even though I did solve it.

Trouble converting PDF to Excel

I'm trying to convert this delimited PDF to an excel (or some other delimited format). Using Adobe Acrobat 9, I attempt to save it and copy it as Excel but it gives the error message "BAD PDF; error in processing fonts. [348]". How can I save as an excel?

The PDF is not a Tagged PDF, so export will not provide an output that requires low-effort cleanup.
The PDF producer was Crystal Reports, not Excel - so, the data comes from some database application.
Consequently, no "file" to share.
Now, if this Crystal Reports PDF was not a "Bad PDF" due to use of unsupported Type2 font then you could try making the Tagged by use of Advance > Accessibility > Add Tags to Document (using Acrobat Pro).
If the PDF were Standards compliant, even not tagged, you could play with the following:
Save the PDF to your local machine.
With Acrobat Professional or better -
Use the Select Tool to select content.
Hover the mouse cursor over some highlighted content. Look for a change in the cursor icon.
(arrow head pointed up and left with a page sheet below and to the right)
Now, right click for the context menu.
Choices:
Copy | Copy as Table | Save as Table | Open Table in Spreadsheet | Select All Text | Deselect All Text
Or, File > Select All (Ctrl+A, Command+A) the hover the mouse.
The output will actually be a csv file but a spreadsheet app will open it.
Based on what is/is not selected what is present for column headings can be (to some extent) manipulated.
But, again, a well-formed Tagged PDF would permit rather clean transfer of data from the PDF to Excel.
You could try Save As to a *.txt file and manually delimit the data.

Help with converting pdf to excel

I have a pdf of an excel file which I need to convert back to excel. The problem is that when I convert it only half the pages convert correctly to excel but the first three pages are unreadable. Any suggestions as I am stuck on why it only converts half the pages correctly.

You must be using the subscription service with Adobe Reader (ExportPDF)?
If so, you would need the password for the pdf. The bank may have (automatically) added a password preventing any changes. That would need to be removed first.
