How to Extract Fillable Fields from PDF
With pdfFiller you can automatically extract specific data from multiple filled-in insurance policies, invoices and applications into an organized table or database. Use the extracted data to create new documents or securely store it in your pdfFiller account. To extract fillable fields in a PDF, select a completed document as a template and click Extract in Bulk on the right pane.
Define the fields with data you would like to extract. Click Add New Data Field in the upper right corner and draw a rectangle around the data you’d like to extract.
Enter a field name to easily identify the extracted information in an Excel Spreadsheet. When all the fields with the information you need are defined, click Save. On the next stage you can create, edit, delete, upload a new template or select an existing one. Click Extract in Bulk on the right.
Upload all documents (for example all W-2s) with similar data which you would like to include to data extraction by clicking Upload Documents.
Click the Start button to begin the data extraction process. When the data extraction is over, you can download the results by clicking Download Result.

What our customers say about pdfFiller
I like being able to edit and/or fill-in .PDF documents. I also like that I can retrieve documents that I have previously worked on.
What do you dislike?
I'd like to be able to change the font in the text option, as it doesn't always look right if mismatched.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'm not sure how I first heard of PDF FILLER, but am I ever glad that I found it. My advice would be to try it out and see if it suits your needs. I like many of its features, especially the left pane that shows the document pages, and the ability to select only those that you want to include in a print or save maneuver.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
One use that I have for the program is for one of our telecommuter workers - so that she can enter details on employee time cards, and it looks better than handwriting in notes. Uploading the documents she needs is a breeze, and the program alerts me to activity, for example, when she emails the documents to us for distribution.
