Hi everyone,

I’m working on a brand-new, curated collection of boutique accessories, but I can't access our original digital lookbook files from last year. My design assistant saved them to an external drive that was disconnected too early, resulting in corrupt PDF DOC DOCX files across the board.

I want our marketing campaign to remain on schedule and completely professional. Is there an established method to salvage raw text and images from a damaged PDF without having to hire an expensive digital forensics expert?

Thanks in advance.
