Convert PDF to Excel or CSV?

I have a PDF file full of addresses (>3000) in this format:

Name
Street Address
City State Zip
Phone Number

Is there any program that will allow me to convert it into a Excel file or CSV?

Thanks!

Adobe Reader has a "Save as text" function.

Then you can use the import function to get the data.

You can set Excel to make a selected number of columns from a text file in that form. I just taught students how to do that the other day.

There are some PDF to Excel converter in the market, you can Google the Keyword " PDF to Excel", then you can find some.

Hi.

Yes, there is a tool that will do that. EDI Link Connect by EC Dynamics will do a PDF Conversion to Excel. It does PDF to XML, PDF to EDI,PDF to Excel and a few others. Its very simply. You email their server a PDF and it replies with the data within a minute totally automated and 100% accurate. Here are a couple links:

Hope that helps
