Can MAXQDA import PDFs?
With the newest version MAXQDA 10, PDFs can be easily imported. PDFs are viewed in MAXQDA exactly like in Adobe Reader – no formatting is lost. For MAXQDA 2007, PDFs must first be converted to Rich Text for import. In Adobe Acrobat, this is possible by simply saving a PDF in RTF format, or for even better results, you can use a conversion tool, such as FineReader or Omni.
