Automation of extraction of information and creation of PDF file with standard template

Question

Hello I need to be able to extract information from pdf from different sources and have that information inserted into a standard template. Can Acrobat Reader automate this process? Thank you

Not really. It can process PDF files using a script, and extract information from them (to the Console, for example), but it can't do so in a batch process, so you would have to run it on one file at a time. Also, it's not certain this would be possible at all (even if you had Acrobat). It would depend on the structure of those files and how easy it is to locate the information you're after in them.
