Hi @Shoebmd

The more reliable way I think is use read pdf and store the results in string and then use string manipulation/ regex to extract the data

That would be more reliable

When you have your string. Try to parse it. Using string methide (type string.) and you will have all methods used for string. Or use system.txt.regularexpressions.regex (you have document on it on web ^^ )
