depends on your kung-fu...

you could get your quote from pse via their site
example Jolibee

http://www.pse.org.ph/html/MarketInformation/stockinfo.jsp?securitySymbol=JFC

use perl to get the table info (HTML::TableExtract)

go crazy with the data.

Hi All!

   i've tried ghostview/ghostscript, pdftotext,
pdf2html, and ps2ascii; none of them seem to do a good
job of preserving the original pdf document's layout
properly.


i thought it would be great to somehow import the daily stock quotes from www.pse.org.ph into Calc or Excel, but the formatting should be preserved so that i can use the "delimited" option to parse the data into columns.

  Can anyone suggest any other utility? Thanks
