Copying and pasting content from PDF files can be challenging due to formatting issues and complex layouts, but several tools and methods can help streamline the process. Adobe Acrobat Reader's Select tool is suitable for simple text extraction, while Microsoft Word and Google Docs offer options for text-heavy PDFs, although they may struggle with formatting retention. Online converters provide a straightforward way to extract text but often sacrifice formatting quality. For data extraction, Excel's Get Data tool and open-source libraries like Tabula can extract tables into spreadsheets, though they may not handle complex or scanned documents well. Image extraction can be accomplished through screenshot tools or Acrobat Pro's Snapshot tool, and converting PDF pages to image files is effective for graphical elements. Nanonets, an AI-powered platform, provides advanced OCR and automation capabilities for extracting structured and unstructured data from PDFs, offering seamless integration with business systems for efficient document processing. The choice of method depends on the user's specific needs, document complexity, and desired level of automation.
