[Info-vax] Process a .pdf file ?

[DTL]

Hello happy tax payers...

I'm experimenting an interesting exercise.
I have a pdf file that I need to process to build an EXCEL file to
perform some sorting
pdf file has following format:

first_name
last_name
wedding_name
(empty_zone)
birth_date
birth_addr
birth_town
birth_country
addr1
addr2
postal_code
town

all fields may *not* be used
all of this on four lines and three colums in the .pdf
fortunately a cut/paste to Word gives a one column result
So, I copied the resulting file in text format to VMS and did some DCL
to produce a comma-separated file to be imported back to EXCEL, one
line per person. But I encounter some synchronization issues...

Should someone around here did (is that good English?) something
similar, feel free to mail
didier dot morandi at gmail dot com

Many thanks !

DTL DCL same fight
and the answer is... 42
