Automation of several scanned page PDF export to Excel

We have MANY PDF files scanned at work (about 8 400) that we need to export to Excel. There are a few tricky parts to what I'm trying to find out if there is a way to automate this. These are all individual PDF files, but I know that I could convert them all to a multipage PDF, if I need to, that shouldn't be a problem. The major problem being that we want only a small part of all files PDF, the upper left corner that has some basic information (name and address) to be exported to an Excel worksheet. The rest of the PDF file is not required. If that helps anything on the automation of formatting are simple page PDF. Anyone know if this is possible?

I asked this in the PDF forum, but someone suggested to ask in the forum of java script instead.

It can be done, most likely, but it would be a custom script to extract the text from the desired coordinates and then export it to a format that can be read using Excel (for example, a text file delimited by tabs). This is not a simple task, however.

  • Fusion of data - sets of 2 page PDF export

  • Single Page PDF export in InDesign?

    We just started sending only our catalogs directly to the printer, rather than sending them through a pre-press House. We have fixed most of the snags, but the biggest pain now export a PDF file to send to the printer. Right now, we must go on a page at once - open the spread, export one page, the other page to export, close it and move on to the next. Needless to say, that takes some time.

    Can I export a PDF from the book file. This part is pretty simple. But what I'd like is to export my address book file and wind upward with a PDF split into individual pages, which I could then download it just to the printer. I know I could export the PDF book, and then open the book in Acrobat format and break a page at a time, but it's almost too prone to mistakes like the longest.

    I think a script customized for Acrobat can do this work for me, but I don't know.

    If anyone knows how to make this work, it could save us a ton of time.

    You don't need a script. Export the entire PDF file. Open in Acrobat Pro and use the command extract pages.

  • Several types of pdf export (high quality, prepress, smaller size, etc.) in a single process indd file?

    Hello world

    For many of the projects I'm working on that I need to provide customers with a high resolution, low resolution and ready to print their documents. It is not a huge deal to run the export of Indesign 3 times, but I wonder if there is a batch process that can do at once? For the moment, I'm archiving work and it's a major pain to do this for each file!

    I have been a script, perhaps a droplet of acrobat or action, Distiller affecting thinking, or perhaps a third-party app?

    Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I looked for something like this for a while, but the only thing I found is out factory of Zervik - I'm not yet sure he does several types of indd. But surely there are free tools or some intelligent workflows that I have not yet stumbled...

    Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

  • Several groups in PDF export

    I posted a similar question in the past and it has been sorted (ending with export groups but in JPG format). However, I would like to export them to PDF, now that I know it's possible and have a rough idea of how to do this through some members of this forum.

    Although I only got an extreme like the code below. It resizes the page but it looks like the right size - and the Group meets in pasteboard somewhere.

    Would be very happy if someone could remember where I've gone wrong!

    var doc=app.activeDocument;  
    var links=doc.links.everyItem().getElements();  
    var fd=new Folder(doc.fullName.parent+'/PDF');  
    if(!fd.exists){
      fd.create();
    }
    var f;  
    for (var i=0;i<links.length; i++){
      if ((links[i].status==LinkStatus.NORMAL||links[i].status==LinkStatus.LINK_EMBEDDED)&&  
      links[i].parent instanceof EPS &&
      links[i].parent.parent.parent instanceof Group){
    
    
        //create new document
        app.documents.add();
    
    
        //duplicate group to new document
        links[i].parent.parent.parent.duplicate(document.pages.item(0));
    
    
        //set bounds of page to bounds of group
        var pg = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0);
        var gBounds = links[i].parent.parent.parent.geometricBounds;
        pg.reframe(CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES, [[gBounds[1], gBounds[0]], [gBounds[3], gBounds[2]]]);
    
    
        //export as PDF
        f=File(fd.fullName+'/'+links[i].name.replace(/.[^.]+$/,'')+'.pdf');  
        app.activeDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, f)
    
    
        //exit without saving
        app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.NO);
    
    
      }
    }
    

    Adam

    Adam,

    It seems simpler to create the new document to the appropriate size so that no resizing is required. Something like this:

    group = links[i].parent.parent.parent;
    gb = group.geometricBounds;
    app.documents.add ({documentPreferences: {pageWidth: gb[3]-gb[1], pageHeight:gb[2]-gb[0]}});
    duped = group.duplicate(app.documents[0].pages.item(0));
    duped.move([0,0]);

    Cannot be done with the player; you will need Acrobat for that.

    If you do not have Acrobat, and it is a unique work, you can use the 30 day trial of Acrobat Pro DC: https://www.acrobat.com/en_us/free-trial-download.html
