Default Why won't the copy/paste from PDF retain the row/column in exc

Like I said - it ain't cheap. Does lots more than just convert .pdf back to
original type document, but you've got to either really, really want it or
really, really need it. I think I got my version for around $160 on sale, so
keep your eye out, they may go on sale again in the future. I have a need to
use it fairly often as I receive .pdf files that I have to work with in
various ways, and I just got tired of hand typing the darned things, so I'm
"loaded up" with both OmniPage and Adobe Acrobat Pro to deal with them.
And like I said, it's also not absolutely perfect, usually there's some
manual tweaking of the created .doc/.xls or whatever file still to be done.
So in the end, perhaps doing some cut and pasting by hand isn't so bad after
all?
