I work in field service , for a packaging food machinery company.

We have a huge range of machines and do major preventive and reactive maintenance.
All the manuals for our machine are exploded diagrams with part numbers beside each component.
My entire team on Adobe subscriptions by showing them the comments feature where we can quickly run through a manual highlighting each part we need and when finished we can look through the summary and copy paste each part to an excel sheet so she can import the column of part numbers into our quote system.
 
My question is, is it possible to create an additional feature when using the commenting application. When you go through the manual and highlight all the part numbers it is fantastic how we can crate a comment summary and easley select just the pages that have highlights and give the customer a clear visual of the parts they were ordering.
 
Sorry, back to the question, as i said i highlight all the part numbers , sometimes hundreds , depending on how big the job is. Is there possible to be able to copy all the part numbers at once and paste them into a descending column in Microsoft excel.
 
If i can go one further and ask, one column for part numbers and another for quantity of part required.
 
Mabye the qty could be entered each time you copy a part number? It could be something you could activate and deactivate, like a plugin.
 
If you could make this happen , i could see a very lucrative opportunity for subscriptions, all corporate, plenty of foot traffic for your ,many other applications.

I might be able to create for you a custom-made tool that can do this, but would need to see a sample file with some comments first, to get a better idea of how it is set up. If you're interested, feel free to contact me privately by clicking my user-name and then on the blue "Message" button.
