Hi Karen, I use (and recommend) Foxit PDF Reader (Foxit claims >300 million users). I find that it is significantly superior to Adobe PDF Reader. Foxit’s full pdf editor, Foxit PhantomPDF, has a feature to convert directly to Excel in current or 97-2003 format. I tried a couple of quick tests and the results were perfect. PhantomPDF also has automation capabilities.

Sorry for whatever hickup on my or their side that caused the cascading messages! Is there a utlity you've used to convert a PDF to Excel? I need to import data from a PDF file. I googled it and I see alot of "free" options (free is always cool) but I worry that those free utilities are installing other unknown things on the computer. Would be willing to pay for a quality program, of course! The utility doesn't have to be fully automated, the user is willing to do the conversion manually is that's required. Karen
