by Rob, 3 years agoI have been working on putting all of my financial data (both historical and current) into kMyMoney (an opensource app similar to Quicken/MS Money). I had been struggling to find a program that could extract the data from a PDF file and put into CSV format so I could import into kMyMoney. When that failed, I started looking at browser extensions that would work with the financial data displayed directly from the web page. Because of the personal financial information, I did NOT want to upload any data to 3rd party website for processing. I tried over a dozen apps and browser add-ons before I came across TableCapture. When I first tried it, it didn't seem to work because I couldn't find the icon to to launch the Table Capture add on. I messaged the author, and within 30 minutes, he responded with an answer (on a Sunday no less). He told me that the icon was placed at the end of the URL bar and not in the typical location with all of the other add-ons. With in minutes of his response, I was able to copy all of the data into the clipboard and paste it into an editor in tab separated format. (The paid version supports CSV and XLS format). But I was able to easily remove all of the commas in the data (used to indicate thousands in number), then replace the tab characters (using \t) to commas, and voila, I had my financial data in CSV format!
