importing pdf document with 2 columns - formatting messed up


 

Hi, I've just discovered Taguette and it's fantastic!
I'm sure someone has already solved this problem:?
I'm importing pdf journal articles into Taguette. They are usually formatted as two columns. After importing to Taguette, it ends up as a jumble, as the conversion tool reads across the page, so interlaces the content from 2 columns, rather than down one column then down the next column. How can I prevent this?

Thanks again, great tool!
Molly


 

Molly:

I had luck with the following process:
  • Download PDF
  • Open PDF with MS Word to convert to DOCX
  • Save As -> file.docx
  • Import DOCX to Taguette
Hope this helps.
