Hi @Vicky37373380bspb,

I am trying to figure out the same thing. Looks like it is possible with PDFelement (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gja8RxbHjF0) but I already have Adobe Acrobat Pro and don't want to pay for additional software.

Hi @Vicky37373380bspb,

Hope you are doing well. Thanks for writing in!

You can extract specific pages from a PDF file to separate files and then combine them into one complete file.

Hope this helps.

Hello - thank you for the reply. Perhaps I wasn't clear - I meant to extract specific data and transfer them to a spreadsheet.
Thanks.

@Vicky37373380bspb,

If the file allows content copy, you can copy the contents from the PDF and paste them to Excel.

The extraction process would have a better experience on the desktop version.
