Hello I have an excel file with a list of people and a set of PDF files containing additional information about each one of these people. Each PDF file belongs to a different person in the list. And each PDF is named accordingly to identify the full name to whom it belongs. (ie:the pdf is named as each person in the list in inside the excel file) The idea is to make the simplest possible software/script to automate the process of adding a new column for each different row (person) in the excel file with a specific piece of information contained in the PDF about that specific person. Note that the piece of information contained in the PDF files is always under the same section (of the PDF file) and always under the same subtitle (I will give you accurate information later). Therefore, it shouldn't be complicated to always pick the information under this category within the PDF file in order to add it to each row of the Excel file. I will provide the excel file with the list of names and the PDF files to relevant freelancers. Please tell me your idea of the technology you plan to use for this task and why? Thanks

Hello. I can get the data from your PDF files into the spreadsheet quite easily; that is why I bid only $50-- it is not hard to do. 1. Convert the PDFs to Word or Excel files; I will need to see the PDFs to decide which. I have the best converter app that can do 1000 files in about 5 minutes. 2. Using a VBA script, copy the specified text to the spreadsheet. I look forward to doing this project for you.

Hi there, The requirement is quite clear and straightforward to implement so no question really. I just need a couple of sample files and a short description of the data to be transferred from pdf to excel. I'm planning to use c# along with itext library which is agpl licensed. If that application is for internal use it's all good but if you intend to distribute it you'd need a license. If that's the case we should consider other options. I can get this ready in 24 hours at most, thanks.

Hi, I can build a tool in vb.net to read your excel file, add column and fill with data from persons pdf file. In the past I worked with open source libraries as openxml (to read and write excel files) and itexthsharp to read data from pdf files. The tool can import the excel file to see on screen rows and run the process to get pdf info, later save into excel append column with pdf data, you can set the input file, output file and set pdf folder location, or run a console type program to process the excel file and pdfs file in the same folder where do you run the program. Check my portfolio, a lot of windows desktop applications, please send me a sample files to show you a demo without obligation.

Hi there. I have worked on extracting text from PDF and Text Mining. Plus I have rich experience with Python. So I think I am a good choice for this task. One thing to note is that some PDF file actually contains images instead of text content. For this type of PDF files, to extract text from them would be tricky, or even not possible in a reasonable time box. Thanks,

I'd use python as my coding language, there's a very nice library for it called PyPDF2 ~ PyPDF2 is a python library built as a PDF toolkit. It is capable of: Extracting document information (title, author, …) Splitting documents page by page Merging documents page by page Cropping pages Merging multiple pages into a single page Encrypting and decrypting PDF files and more For the actual task itself, all I need to do is open you're current csv(excel) file and copy the info into a new temporary file. While doing so I'll grab the new info from the pdf files and append the additional columns to each row. Then just re-write the newly edited info back into your file.
