    I have a pdf which has a text into three different columns. I want to copy/import the data into Notepad++ but in the similar format without changing the original text/special charactors. Kindly advise the way to do that.

    I will be very thankful to you for the right solution.

    *I do not want to use pdf to notepad converter as sometime it changes few original special charactors.

    Thank you.

      Don’t! Notepad++ is a text editor. PDF files are binary and have a proprietary format which Notepad++ does not know about, nor should it as it is a text editor (purposely repeated for effect).

      Use a program which will understand the pdf format and extract the data you want. That question is outside of this forum so you will need to seek that answer elsewhere.
