    Guys

    is there a nice quick way of converting a pdf file into excel format, for free. The obvious answer is PDF writer, but that costs.

    I have tried just a simple copy and pace, but then I lose all the formatting.

    any ideas ?

    thanks
    B

    first there are the copyright implications, people don't produce pdf's so they can be edited

    if you can cut/paste that's most of the way

    if you have office 2003 or later print the excel to microsoft document imaging and then ocr it in that way - might work
