"Time Wasting Download"
Version: Able2Extract 6.0
Pros
At least it downloaded quick
Cons
Not fully functional. Can't convert scanned dowuments.
Summary
I am tired of downloading software that claims to do one thing or another and then leaves out the obvious like that a PDF would be a scanned document. Give us the full version to test or nothing at all. It's hard to fall in love with half a program when it's the wrong half.

"Not the best & seriously over priced."
Version: Able2Extract 5
Pros
It does pretty much what it claims but no better in reality then the $49 PDF to word. neither actually render PDF docs into real word documents. Their more along the line of some hybrid format in between PDF & Word thats editable.
Cons
Their pro version might be better but somehow i doubt it. Big time over priced for what you get.
Summary
Decent at best. the price is outrageous. Doesn't actually convert to a real word document but some form of hybrid. Big learning curve. Most assuredly not for the average home user. Way to complicated. I guess after having looked at so many of these, none really do everything they claim. PDF to Word id the one I'd recommend.

"Great Program"
Version: Able2Extract 5
Pros
Does exactly what it's supposed to do. Simple to use, works every time. Fantastic!
-
"nice program overall"
Version: Able2Extract 5
Pros
did what I needed it to do.
Cons
The pro version of this product is a hundred times better at converting to word. I don't know why but it is. You figure that it uses the same conversion engine but I got diffrent results. You can find the pro version on there website. (there website can be really slow loading at times)

"Very good for converting pdf tables to text."
Version: Able2Extract 5
Pros
Conversion is reasonably fast. Accurate for horizontal text, including table contents and column headings. I needed to convert pdf files that were full of tables into Excel (only the Professional version converts to Excel). Resulting layout in Excel is very nice and usable. User interface is not quite as full-featured in Professional version, but has zoom, etc.
Cons
The only complaint I had is that vertically oriented text is ignored.

"Conversion to Word has a lot of bugs"
Version: Able2Extract 5
Cons
Trial version does 3 pages at a time. It was hard to highlight exactly 3 pages. The regular form of conversion sometimes did very well. The resulting Word document is in a form that is some kind of hybrid that does poorly if you want to add existing copy which is also in DOC format.

Cons
it doesn't do what it says it can do.
