How to import a pdf file having fixed width data into notepad++ in the same format i.e. fixed width data format /cpulmn wise data
-
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.

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