You can save a journal in PDF format

You can import tables from PDFs. This can work well if there is a consistent pattern.

You can import text from PDFs: Search for open() with pdfText() option in the scripting index. The text will likely not be in the order you expect.

 

You will lose a lot of formatting and all the images.
