How can I convert a PDF (.pdf) to an Excel (.xcl) file?

If the .pdf was saved from a word (.doc) file that you can access then copy the table from the word file into an .xcl spreadsheet. Sometimes, a .pdf is saved from a .doc and the text in the .pdf is selectable. Then you don't need the .doc because you can select text from the .pdf file. However, some .pdf files are just scanned bitmap (.bmp) files that are saved as a .pdf file. In that case, use text recognition software with optical character recognition (OCR) to pull text from the .pdf file. Then paste it into a .doc and format it into a table and then copy/paste into the .xcl file.

Convert PDF to Excel: All You Need to Know

For more information, see Wikipedia article on Worded. Another way, which can work better, is to do a word search, but this involves using an online search engine or some other program that allows you to select individual fields in a word and then go to their associated.table, .CLI or another spreadsheet file, instead of copying the entire table. When you're done, you get a list of all the fields that match. Here's a simple example: Select some data from my spreadsheet, then search the text with an online tool or search my Worded document for text that matches the search field. Then you can use a spreadsheet to enter your text. A .xls or .CLI spreadsheet with all the values you selected saved as a .xls or .CLI file has a .pdf file attached. That is, the text that you select from the .xls or .CLI file appears in.
