I converted a PDF to an excel sheet, but can't sort the data because of not all the merged data are in the same cell?  What do I do?

I do a sort a converted PDF to an excel spreadsheet?  The merged fields aren't the same...

Sorry, I don't understand anything.  What means "merged data" and "merged fields"?
Can you perhaps provide a screenshot of the original PDF, and the resulting Excel sheet?  See https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933

    What happens when you convert to excel?

  • Click on download of pdf opens adobe acrobat reader, but then clicking on file save-as does not give a dialog box to change the name or location where it is sav

    Using Firefox 19.02
    When I receive an email with an Excel, Word, or PDF file attachment, and I click download, firefox opens up the associated program for all my users, however when you click on file>save-as you are not presented with the dialog box to perform a save.
    Excel and Word, no fix at all. Other than different browser or to click download, right click and go to folder, and then copy it out of there to another folder and open it.
    Help, what is going on here????

    You need Acrobat Standard or Pro to convert the scanned image to readable text (OCR) and then save it as a Excel file (if Acrobat recognizes that it's a table, which I doubt it will). Maybe there are some 3rd party plugins that can help you further.

    it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

  • Converting A PDF to an Excel File

    I recently purchased a list that has something along the lines of 1600 pages of data.  When I purchased it, I was told it would be in an Excel spreadsheet I could manipulate and work with.  Instead, it came in a PDF.
    Is there anyway I can convert that PDF to an Excel file?  I have been looking into third party software, does anyone have any recommendations?
    Thanks.

    You can try saving the entire file as an Excel spreadsheet (in Acrobat X it's under File - Save As - Spreadsheet), or you can select parts of the text (using the Text Selection Tool), and then right-clicking it and exporting it or copying it as a table, if that option appears.

    Hi Sara
    From the document
            When I try the file save as other, nothing happens after I click on Word or Excel Online.
            There is no way I can click on the convert button on Export PDF.
            I am logged in as you can see.                                                                               
            When I go to Cloud Acrobat I can see the file there but only as a PDF.
            There is no word document there.
            As you can see I have tried this more than once.
    I just don’t know what to do from there.
    Hope you can help
    Many thanks
