@@ExcelForFreelancers Actually I just realized it is not possible because the fault must be in Foxit Reader. It's Foxit that's not tabbing the information when a field is blank, so the info is thrown off into the wrong columns before your macro can do anything about it and there's no way for the Excel macro to know this has happened.

Another great little course, can we do it with Adobe Acrobat pro?

Dear Teacher, Is there any chance that we could do the same process but with scanned pdf?

@ExcelForFreelancers

Hi Nga thanks so much for the great question. It is possible that if you use a scanned in PDF that you an fill it and then extract the data. I just put up a video a few days ago that will show you exactly how to automatically fill a pdf from a scanned in pdf here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aJqj1pONj8qXlLA.html

Hi! This is just amazing! I am working with some paper forms that are filled by hand (mostly checklist and a few comments in the instructions section). I was thinking about scanning all those forms and extract its information to a database like the one you have described in this video. Can you give me a recommendation? Thank you very much!

Hi thanks for scanned in forms you will want to check out 3rd party software "PDF to Excel" is a good term to search in Google. VBA cannot 'read' PDF's unless the form was filled out on a computer. Thanks so much.

According to the video, this training is designed to export only the form data and nothing else, but in practice the code only export the files name, I'm wondering how Randy get names, phone numbers, city and address exported into each row and column.

How would I go about to set it up to where excel would only run the command to OPEN the pdf, doesn't have to extract the data.

Hi and thanks so much. You could use the command ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink FilePath Where 'FilePath' is the full file path of the PDF you want to open it. That would open the pdf from Excel VBA. I hope this helps and thanks so much.

I'm looking for a free tool of some sort, that can simply unwrap and list all the files contained in a normal unencrypted PDF. The reason being I found a PDF (a less than 200 pages book with very few pics) that's more than 250MB's. There's definitely something else going on than just bad compression or formatting. I would like to just see a simple list of all the different files, fonts and whatever the PDF contains. Every single item, not just text or pics that has a lot of free apps and can also be done in Acrobat Reader.
