This is SO cool. Thank you for taking the time to make this tutorial.
You are so welcome!
This was SO helpful, thank you very much! Is there a way to detect if the text is underlined or bold in the PDF as you are reading through it?
Can it be used with files scanned onto a PC? It's similar to the picture but in a pdf.
Wow, your works are amazing. Thank you.
Thank you very much!

I understand extraction of PDF text to Excel.
How to extract only comments from PDF to Excel. Instead of manually from PDF acrobat, can I automate it using VBA?
If you have a solution for this, could you please share. Thanks
Wow! This amazing. Thanks to you Sir
You are most welcome
Thanks for such a detailed and easy walkthrough. I was looking for something similar to automate a US tax form. I would like to update this form filed using values from different cells in Excel. One way I can think to do this using sheet.range function along with for to loop in all the rows for to update all data. Am I right, or are there any other suggestions?
Glad it was helpful!
Take a look at this video. ua-cam.com/video/v-uxpc86wrw/v-deo.html
Thanks for the response. I did see this is video yesterday, but from what I see, the you did fill out the pdf but the values were constant and update in vba window. As I would like to update it for multiple companies I need it to be more dynamic. So that I could take values from excel cell.
Sorry for multiple comments, but one last question. I tried to use your code but unfortunately I am not able to open the pdf form . I am getting access denied pop up
Great. Can we read data from one pdf form nd fill the same in another pdf form ? Or can we copy data from Excel sheet and paste it in PDF form ?
Yes, you can. Please check this video.

Nice but data are not arranged so that i can identify.Thank You
Ok. Thanks
Again a great tutorial.
can you please change this line

I am trying to get it printed like this in an Excel file.
Can you help out?
Because I don't know if it is possible to read data from PDF line by line.
It is ok, if the complete TXT will be put into Cell A1, I will then use Excel to rebuild data into columns etc ( the same way I would do when importing a TXT file)
use exact code like you...but constant showing error
Try update file link. Maybe file path was not correct.
I could not find the code from any of the links..anyone has code please?
