Is there any tool to convert PDF to XLS on linux….

Best Solution

pdftotext -layout input_file.pdf output.txt 

from then you could try pasting into a spread sheet and setting the correct diameter. All depends on the pdf in question. If you know some python you can also check out pdfminer to get the formatting you need.

This is quick, easy, to the point and doesn’t require any third-party script:

UPDATE (2/3/2021)

Adobe now offers it’s own PDF Embed API.

UPDATE (1/2018):

The Chrome browser on Android no longer supports PDF embeds. You can get around this by using the Google Drive PDF viewer

Proper MIME media type for PDF files

The standard Media Type (formerly known as MIME types) is application/pdf . The assignment is defined in RFC 3778, The application/pdf Media Type, referenced from the Media Types registry.

Media Types are controlled by a standards body, The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). This is the same organization that manages the root name servers and the IP address space.

The use of x-pdf predates the standardization of the Media Type for PDF. Media Types in the x- namespace are considered experimental, just as those in the vnd. namespace are considered vendor-specific. x-pdf might be used for compatibility with old software.

Re: PDF to excel and word converter for Linux

I haven’t checked anything with wine till now. Actually I am downloading wine from Ubuntu repositories. But I am not finding any suitable pdf to excel/word converter listed in the wine database. May you guys can suggest one..

I am thinking of trying PDFCONVERTER with wine.. Though PDFCONVERTER is not listed in the wine database, I am not pretty sure whether it will work with wine or not.

Re: PDF to excel and word converter for Linux

Open Office has a word processor (Write) and a spreadsheet (Calc) that are almost fully compatible with Word and Excel.

You may be able to use OO to convert pdf files to compatible file types (I know you can save Open Office Write files as .doc files) and use those.

OpenOffice has an extension available to import PDF’s.

Once imported into OpenOffice you can then save as a Microsoft document.

. of course it may not work or there could be formatting issues.

Re: PDF to excel and word converter for Linux

Hi,
As I have mentioned in my first post, that I have to write a code to call the exe file.While my code is fine and tested, I am not finding a software that my code can call and execute. Will the OO’s feature you are talking about, be able to get executed from a program? My client does not want to manually convert pdf files to word/excel.

Re: PDF to excel and word converter for Linux

This probably all assumes that the PDF files were originally directly converted to PDF files that include text. If they are scanned files, you would need an OCR program to try to convert graphics to text.
