Database links to PDFs created from a web page

I have created over 2000 pdfs from a website. Over 90% of the pdfs have identical structure, like a standard report. Is there a way to tag or link the standard sections of all these pdfs to a database for data extraction? Thus, using the standard reports (+2000) created by Adobe, can I populate a new database from the created PDFs?

This [i]might[/i] be possible with a script, but that depends very much on the exact nature and structure of the files.
But you will not be able to do it with Acrobat Standard. You need Acrobat Pro in order to be able to process multiple files with a batch process.
