Convert pdf into excel format - format issue

Before I purchase an Adobe Acrobat Pro XI I have downloaded the trail version for evaluating. I have also run an Update of the program.
Our company is receiving a lot of order files in PDF-format and instead of entering the order lines manually into our order system we want to convert these pdf files into Excel format. We can then use this xls file to upload the order into SAP and in that way save a lot of time. The pdf file consists of several columns as material number, description, quantity …..I want that every column in the pdf document also appears in one own column in the xls file. This works for several order lines but then suddenly are all the columns for some order line written into one and the same column and then are the columns again correctly written. I have tried with several pdf files with the same problem. Has anyone any idea what the reason for this issue is?

Is this a PDF form? If so, you should be able to extract the data in the form using the manage data under the forms tools. That may be what you are looking for.
Whenever I see a post related to forms by a commercial concern, there is an issue related to Reader rights. Some of this has changed with AA XI and it would be good to review the license agreement carefully to be sure you are in compliance (law suits are not pretty).

    Hi nickel13,
    What is the problem you are facing?
    Is this happening with a single PDF file?

  • I am wondering what upgrades I need in order to convert PDFs into another format and compress the size of a PDF (if this is possible)?

    I want to be able to convert PDFs into another format and I know this can be achieved with a small upgrade. However I am also looking for the ability to compress the size of PDFs, if this is at all possible.

    You can use Acrobat Standard for this.

  • Convert PDF Page to Image format

    Is there any way to convert PDF page to Image formats (like JPG, GIF...)?
    I am looking in iTextSharp. If there are other options also, please let me know.

    There is a sample included with the Acrobat SDK that shows how to perform conversions of PDFs to other formats. There are also other options available to plug-ins such as PDPageDrawContentsToMemory() and then using an image library of your choice to save the bitmap data into various image formats.
    > I am looking in iTextSharp
    This is the Acrobat SDK forum - for questions regarding coding using the Acrobat SDK. Have you considered asking this in an iTextSharp forum if you are limiting yourself to that product?

  • Why can't i convert itunes into an mp3 format?

    I looked on Apple's website for information on how to convert itunes into a mp3 format on your windows pc. I followed each step. I clicked on Edit and Preferences and set it to Mp3 converter. I then selected the songs I wanted to convert into. Then I clicked Advanced. When I clicked Advanced, it showed "Create Mp3 Version" but it was grayed out. And i was unable to click it. I do not know if I did something wrong or..? Please help me out with this situation because I really want to convert it to an Mp3 format to post it on a website. Thanks.

    It doesn't work if you simply open it in a browser tab. When you download it and open in an Adobe window you will be able to click on it and type your information in the spaces provided.

    I'm sorry you're having such trouble using the ExportPDF service. What browser are you using?
    Please try clearing your browser cache, or using a different browser (here's a list of supported browsers:   http://www.adobe.com/acom/systemreqs/.

  • Getting 'Out of memory' error while opening the file. I have tried several versions of Adobe 7.0,9.0,X1. It is creating issue to convert PDF into TIFF. Please provide the solution ASAP

    Hello All,
    I am getting 'Out of memory' error while opening the file. I have tried several versions of Adobe 7.0,9.0,X1.
    Also, it is creating issue to convert PDF into TIFF. Please provide the solution ASAP.

    I am using Adobe reader XI. When i open PDF it gives "OUT of memory" error after scrolling PDF gives another alert "Insufficient data for an image". after clicking both alerts it loads full data of PDF. It is not happening with all PDFs. couple of PDFs are facing this issue. Because of this error my software is not able to print these PDFS into TIFF. My OS in window7*64. I tried it on win2012R2 and XP. Same issue is generating there.
    It has become critical issue for my production.

  • When exporting PDF into Excel works great - with one exception

    In converting a pdf into an excel document (with 10 columns) all of the columns and the data line up accurately after conversion - except for one of them. 5 of the columns are numerical values and 5 are characters/letters (in mixed order).
    The column that does not align is column 9 and it's a text based column. The info from this column appears on it's own line in the first column - which is a numerical field. I have to cut and paste that info and place it in the correct column manually and I realy hope to avoid doing that because this is a 30,000 line long piece of excel data!. It is formatted perfectly in the pdf version and only is a problem when I convert it into excel.
    Anyne ever have the same issue that found a fix? Any suggestions or ideas?

    Maybe not available with Mac? Don't know.
    With Windows, select, right click & it is on the context menu.
    Be well...

    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, 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, 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.
