Formatting Excel File To Import Data Into Acrobat Pro DC

Community Beginner ,
Jul 07, 2016 Jul 07, 2016

So I have my PDF form all set with the fields named correctly. The issue seems to be the format of my Excel file that contains the data. I must be saving it incorrectly and I have tried multiple .CSV and .TXT formats.

Any hints for me?

I am using Excel 16.0 latest.

Thank you,

Jeff

Save it a tab-delimited.

I actually was able to clean up the file and now I get this and don't know how to import both records, each into its own form.

Thanks in advance!

You can't do that, not directly at least. This kind of operation is called a Mail Merge. It can be performs using some versions of the PDFMaker plugin for Office, or by using a script, like this one I've developed: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Mail Merge and Email
