@Miguel_n11 welcome to the KNIME forum. There was a discussion about this with some example workflows.

Extract Tables from PDF

Hello everyone, It is possible if the PDF allows it, meaning if the string we get from the PDF represents the table so that we can manipulate the String, to extract the table. I took @JAGBI’s example and parsed the first three pages as an example. In order to extract the whole table/document, some more string manipulation would have to be done. The magic happens in the Extract Table metanode, where the string is parsed to an actual table. The workflow would have to be adapted to other PDFs/tab…

Maybe you can provide us with a sample to see how the tables would look like, if you have one that is ok to be published.
