I have a PDF (which was a word document which I no longer have) I need to pull out information form the PDF to populate in a column. Is it possible? Manually I can copy the information in the PDF and paste the information, but is there a way of doing this using nintexs as I have many entries to pull.
Is it possible to convert a PDF back to word or eml?
Thanks
Currently there is not an action in Nintex with this feature.
You could develop a custom action for that.
In some cases you can use the Open XML SDK for that reason >>> How to: Parse and read a large spreadsheet document (Open XML SDK)

An alternative approach may be to get the data value from the file into a Document Property and then map that property to SharePoint field. This might help you get started with this approach https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/pdf-properties-metadata.html and Muhimbi has some tools for working with PDFs and SharePoint that may be helpful.
