Okay. Yes. This sounds like the dumbest question.
I just have a PDF that has a bunch of data in the ugliest possible way and I’ve attempted to pull it into an Excel sheet by myself and mess with the powershell to make it better, but it’s awful, I’m too novice, and I frankly don’t have the time.
This is a personal request, not actually condoned by my workplace, but the data wouldn’t be sensitive. So could I find someone on like fiverr? Or, I dunno where to even look honestly.
Any suggestions?
Something that may help, if you do end up doing this manually, is utilizing alt+click to highlight in the pdf. It’ll select in a box shape instead of reaching the end of each line like a paragraph. Each line will then get pasted as separate rows in excel. It doesn’t split into columns, so you still have to go with individual vertical selections. It also will break apart multi-line entries like I saw in the description field on your sample, so this will have to be highlighted individually normally. But at least it adds a little speed to those triple coordinate items. Maybe.
