Formatting tables and copy-paste
Hello, I've a big big problem with a big big doc - I'm in the middle of translating a major text with tables and diagrams . the original is .pdf, converted using solidpdf. Now the tables, whenever I try to copy-paste them, are all over the place, - what a mess. It seems the text is independent from the lines of the tables and each part behaves independantlty. Is there any way out of this hell ? A tool , another reconverter, a way of putting everything right simply ? Thank you very much for your help Nash |

Formatting tables and copy-paste
OCR conversions are only as good as the software that does the conversion. I
have not used SolidPDF, as I rather like FineReader which is multi-language capable; however any complex OCR produced document is going to be a nightmare to work with. You might find it simpler to extract to plain text and then use Word's convert text to table tool. Without seeing the original PDF it is difficult to be more specific. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Nahshon Evren wrote: Hello, I've a big big problem with a big big doc - I'm in the middle of translating a major text with tables and diagrams . the original is .pdf, converted using solidpdf.
