Convert PDF to EXCEL or CSV using SSIS or C# ?
-
Hi there,
Is it possible to convert a PDF file containing a table to an EXCEL or CSV file using C# code?
I have NitroPDF that lets you convert it easily using their convert feature. I am trying to do this using C# code myself.
PDF file is also attached.
Check below screenshots:

As far as I know, C# cannot do this conversion natively.
NitroPDF does not appear to have an API, so its functions cannot be called from other applications. You'll have to look for a different solution (perhaps another related app which does have an API).

The absence of consumable DDL, sample data and desired results is, however, evidence of the absence of my response

I found this: https://pdfrest.com/apitools/pdf-to-excel/
Is this a good option to use to download a pdf file daily and convert it to excel using this api from our application and then continue using the excel file?

Looks promising, but I haven't used it.
You need to start doing some R&D.
Once you figure out how to code the REST calls you need, whacking that code into SSIS isn't too difficult.
