Much depends on your version of Acrobat. Assuming you use Acrobat 8.1.1 select a table with the Select tool. Open a context menu and choose one of the table export options such as copying, saving, or opening in a spreadsheet.
If you don't see the context menu items your file needs to be tagged. Choose Advanced > Accessibility > Add Tags to PDF, then select the text and open a context menu.You should not be spending 40 hours on this. Let us know if you continue having problems.

I do not see the context menu, and when I try to tag my document, Advanced > Accessibility > "Add Tags to Document" is greyed out, so I cannot select it.What should I do?
