PDF to Excel
- Jul 20, 2023
Afraid that's nothing to do with the file created such way.
I was having the same problem with importing data from PDF files into Excel, and I found that using Power Query can be quite effective. If your Excel version supports it, you can utilize Power Query to connect to PDF files and extract the data directly. You can access this feature by navigating to the "Data" tab in Excel, selecting "From File," and then choosing "From PDF." Power Query can handle various types of PDF content, including structured tables and text-based content. For instance, if your PDF contains tables, Power Query can recognize and extract the tabular data efficiently. Additionally, it can handle PDFs with consistent formatting across multiple pages and adapt to different layouts. So, if you're looking to embed Excel charts with data imported from PDF files, using Power Query could be the solution you need.
