Did you know you can export paragraphs, schedules or entire documents from a PDF and convert them to Microsoft Word or Excel documents? How often are you asked to provide a Sheet Index for a cover page, or wish you could quickly take text from a specification into a word document? It’s true, and it could not be easier. This is one of those “why didn’t I know this years ago” kind of tools.
This works great for a section of the spec or code documents or maybe a Sheet Index or schedule on your drawings. I will note, this “export” is obviously not linked to the PDF, its a snapshot of the document at that time and will not update with the drawings.
Tip: You can now use these files to quickly paste information into your AutoCAD Drawings or Revit Drafting Views.
Give it a shot, what do you think?

Refreshing! No hype, No ego, No hard sell, like the old days of Internet! I never save a page cause I can't stand all the BS and wasted time. I'm joing this one, keep it up!
Thank you for the simplicity. I am not a computer tech savvy person. And I managed to do it. thank you so much !

Nice tuts. Do you know how to auto fill the excel rows similar to the fill color of the areas you used for estimation?
