Copy PDF Text to Excel Spreadsheets
To copy text from a PDF and paste it into an Excel spreadsheet, you can use a few different methods. Here are the steps for each method:

Then, open the screenshot in an image editing program (such as Microsoft Paint or Adobe Photoshop), crop the image to just include the text you want to copy, and save the image as a text file (such as a .txt or .rtf file).
Open the text file in a text editor (such as Notepad or TextEdit) and copy the text. Then, open the Excel spreadsheet and paste the text into a cell.
Use a PDF to Excel converter tool to convert the PDF into an Excel spreadsheet. There are many different tools available online that can do this, such as Adobe Acrobat, Nitro PDF, or Able2Extract. Simply upload the PDF to the converter tool, and it will generate an Excel spreadsheet with the text from the PDF.

Open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro, click the "Export PDF" button in the toolbar, and select "Microsoft Excel Workbook" from the dropdown menu. This will generate an Excel spreadsheet with the text from the PDF.
