Hi,

As far as why doesn't jayalaxmi approached worked is that uploaded pdf maiden with scanned docs which doesn't get converted in tabular/searchable format simply.
 
Hi All,

I found an even simpler solution for the issue. What you need to do is:

1. Take a screen shot of the page you want to extract data from. (page 01 here).
2. Open OneNote and Paste it there.
3. Right click select "copy text from picture".
4. Paste it on word and it is there as text.
I am attaching word file.

For Able2Extract

you can not extract text from images or scanned docs. That is a limitation.
