  • Text extraction from Adobe Indesign

    Hi
    I am trying to extract text from inDesign.Currently I am going thru AdobeAcrobat (PDF) and extract to word. All the text is brought in with a text box around the text. This makes it very difficult to modify the document. Can anyone suggest a method the modify the original doc (inDesign) or the settings in export (either in InDesign or Adobe).

    I appreciate your help.

    Sounds like you have InDesign, or else how are you making the pdf?

    How about copy and paste?

    Export from the pdf as text-plain then you can style as needed.
