Help Needed: Extracting Data from Fillable PDF to JSON or Database

[Thilak385464798sed]

Hello everyone,

I have developed a fillable PDF document using Adobe Acrobat, which spans 95 pages. I am now looking to extract the data filled in this PDF and convert it into JSON format or store it directly in a database.

I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions on the best approach to achieve this. Specifically, I am interested in:

1. Tools or libraries that can efficiently handle large fillable PDFs for data extraction.
2. Steps or best practices for converting extracted data into JSON format.
3. Methods for storing the extracted data in a database (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB).
4. Sample code snippets or tutorials that can help me get started.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

- Are you looking for a tool that works within Acrobat itself, or an external tool?

- Are you looking to hire someone to develop it for you, or are you trying to do it yourself?

Extracting data from a PDF and formatting it as JSON is a straight forward task. Placing it in a DB is a different issue. It the DB is online, then it would be possible for a JS tool to call a server script that places the data into the DB. But there is nothing you can do if the DB is local.
