Nice explanation..

[@erinwrightwriting]

Thank you so much!

Thank you, great explanation. Do you know if it works with scanned tables on the PDF to Excel?

[@erinwrightwriting]

That is an excellent question! If the scan of the table has been added to the PDF and converted to text rather than inserted as an image, this process should work. Thank you for watching!

@@erinwrightwriting Thanks 👍🏻

I have a 25 pages of pdf, I couldn't find a way to select them all to export them. can you advice?

[@erinwrightwriting]

Thank you for watching! Are you trying to select entire pages or only tables within those pages for export to Excel?

[@jonelatendido9836]

What if you have 30 PDF's which contain 50 Tables , Can adobe acrobat export all the tables all at once to excel or csv is this possible? Do you have idea which can extract all tables from pdf to excel or csv automatically?

[@erinwrightwriting]

That is an interesting question! Unfortunately, I am currently unaware of a way to bulk export PDF tables to Excel. If I come upon a solution, I will be sure to post something about it. I wish you all the best!
