Import data from PDF to SQL Server 2008 Either by T-SQl or By SSIS

  • Hi,

    I have a task of loading the data from PF document which has a table structure in it. The table starts at 25 line.

    Would there be any way to load the table in PDF file into the table- SQL Server 2008.

    Your help is a ton. Please suggest.

  • I'm not sure there's an easy way to do this. You'd have to parse out the PDF document.

    Can you cut/paste the data into Excel and import that?

    This seems to make it seem simple: http://josef-richberg.squarespace.com/journal/2010/1/6/simple-series-ssis-import-column.html

  • You have to pre-process the file outside of SQL Server. Search for 'convert pdf csv' and there may be some options. Once you have a csv file all the normal ways of importing into SQL Server will be available.
