Just as the title say’s . I know it’s possible to get fields in plain text instead of ADT format . but I can’t find where I read that .

I have gone through the script and it works well until it encounters tables , There are cases where I have to deal with understanding context from tables as well , so I don’t think it will help me in such cases . Thanks for the response though
