PDF to QuickBooks:

Step 1: Identify the PDF document type

Depending on how the PDF file is created, it can either be a text-based or image-based document. A PDF is a text-based document if you are able to highlight the data in it using the cursor, and if the entire document or box is grabbed, then it is an image-based PDF.

Step 2: Extraction of PDF data

Options to convert the PDF document into Microsoft Excel, Google Docs, or directly into QuickBooks files can be largely different for a text-based PDF or an image-based PDF.

Text-based PDF:

The ideal option to convert a text-based PDF is by converting it directly to .qbo format. The most accurate conversion is done with the help of Money Thumb a PDF to QuickBooks converter designed specifically for financial statements.

The other option is to convert the PDF document into a spreadsheet file using any available general-purpose PDF to Spreadsheet Converters such as the Corel PDF Fusion or Nitro PDF and then using the CSV2QBO converter to convert the spreadsheet file into the .qbo format for QuickBooks.

Image-based PDF:

The recommended option is to convert the image-based PDF into .qbo format directly. With the easy-to-use interface with integrated Optical Character Recognition (OCR), Money Thumb’s PDF+ option is highly suitable for this direct conversion. 

The other best option is to convert the PDF image into a spreadsheet by using an Optical Character Recognition like FreeOCR or FineReader Professional. With this option, the user must run an additional step to convert the spreadsheet into .qbo format using a CSV2QBO converter.
