Hi,
Here is a related forum about:How to convert excel to PDF.
https://community.talend.com/t5/Design-and-Development/Convert-Excel-file-to-PDF-HTML-CSV-file-using...
So far, there is no specific component or connector for PDF file in Talend.
Best regards
Sabrina

Hi,
You might help yourself in the following way: look on the Talend Exchange for the tPDFToText community component, if your pdf is extractable of course, and after that from text you can create Excel files (with Talend's basic Excel files writing components or with J.Lolling's excellent Excel components for more advanced scenarios - also found on the Exchange).
Another way might be calling form your Talend job some third party transformation software (if there are any) and further process the result in your job.
Hope it helped.
