FDF to CSV

FDF to CSV is a simple web application that converts .fdf files containing comments exported from .pdf files into .csv files that list out the comments and their pages.

Usage

  1. Open a pdf file in Adobe Acrobat

  2. Select "Comment" from the toolbar

  4. Go to https://thistemba.github.io/fdf-to-csv/ and select a minimum comment length (for filtering out very short comments, 0 if you want them all)

  5. Upload the .fdf, the .csv file will be downloaded automatically.

Notes

  • Only tested on two files
  • This was based on my dyd-to-csv converter
