I'm looking to pull text from schematics and put the into an excel spreadsheet to create a wiring checklist.

I'm currently using Kofax power pdf to view wiring schematics and want to figure out a way to extract only the cable ID's from the pdf. The cable ID's are all 5-digits or 5-digits with a "C" before the number. I've tried using the "Looks like" feature in Kofax but it includes data outside of my set parameters. Any help with this or a subreddit to help with this would be highly appreciated.
