I am using DNG 5.0.2 and was wondering if there was any way to extract requirements from a PDF file.  I realize that an entire PDF file can be added to a requirements project, but the entire document is one artifact.  Is it possible to parse the PDF document and extract requirements from it?  Is this supported through another application, plug-in, or future release?  Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, such feature does not exist. I can't even find an RFE for it. I guess the demand is very low as I have never come across any cases where PDF is used for requirement authoring. There are many so called "PDF Word Converters" and you may try your luck on them.
