Hello,

I was wondering, if I purchase the converter to convert to excel will the columns in my pdf appear in separate columns in excel? Right now when I copy and paste from pdf to excel, it all pastes in one column without formatting.

Hi Alisha,

What you are looking for, can't or can be achieved with the Export PDF functionality. It depends on the type of pdf file you start with.

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).

For detailed information you can read the related discussion here-

If you would like to test the result before you go for the subscription. Then we only have 7-days trial for Adobe Acrobat DC which you can use to see the exported file result.

Not: Trial is not available for Adobe Export PDF service.
