    PDF connector - LOVE IT. Add the ability to apply same transformations to multiple pages / tables.

    I'm sorry, I don't understand your request. The PDF connector does currently support extracting multi-page tables (although it won't work in all cases), if that's what you're asking for.

    RE: PDF connector

    The preview PDF connector does not allow for form data to be extracted.
    It would be great if when it identifies that the pdf has form data fields it presents a list of avail fields, allows user to select and then retrieves the completed data in a column per field with each row representing each pdf selected as a table result. PDF forms also referred to as FDF, have seen solutions referencing R etc however those solutions are beyond what most want to be able to do simply and within the core powerbi.
