Question

Using my PC Desktop I am trying to convert a PDF file to excel. When the data is imported to Excel the majority of the data is vertical in the far left colum.

I am trying to import a PDF file from my desktop PC in to Excel using XI Pro.  When the data imports in to excel, the majority of the data is vertical along the far left comumn instead of horizonal along the colums such as name, address, etc.   I need to be able to import the data in to the horizonal categories so I can categorize the data after it is in excel.  Thanks.

Hi johnc,

I'm sorry to hear that your file didn't convert well for you. Can you please tell me more about the PDF that you're trying to convert? Do you know how it was created? The quality of a conversion depends on the quality of the PDF, and it sounds like the file you have may not include the tagging information that is required to convert that properly into an Excel file. Would you be willing to share that file with me? If so, let me know and I'll send you a private message with my contact details.

Best,

Sara
