How do I converting a PDF Table to Excel?

- Start date
Even using off the shelf converters, converting pdf to excel can be tricky.
This usually works and it's free to try!
in the pdf highlight all then copy (use Edit, Select All)
in MS word paste
in the new word doc highlight and copy the tables which should now paste correctly into Excel..

Its not working for me... in the security section of properties in the PDF Creation of template pages: Not allowed... does this matter?

It just converts to a picture (its a number of large tables). I just worked out how long it will roughly take me if I need to input data by hand 16 working days!!! This thing needs to be done by Tuesday.... HELP
That page that Brendan gave works, but not with tables, it mangles them unfortunately (I just tested it).
However there is a link to a trial version of a PDF to Excel tool http://www.cogniview.com/pdf2xl-converter.php?gclid=CMW8l5D5wJoCFRSRZgodMWlJsQ which might fit the bill.
