Hi there. I'm a journalist based in Adelaide, South Australia. I've been dabbling in some simple data journalism projects over the past couple of years (see some examples here: http://adelaidedatablog.tumblr.com )

I'm interested - does anybody know of a good, open-source tool for converting PDFs into editable documents, preferably excel?

I know about tools like Tabula - but it appears the tool is experimental and not available for general use.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Greg
