    Hi evonneflood1 ,

    According to your description, converting pdf files to excel format the method you mentioned is indeed a viable path. But because the data in your pdf file is not displayed in a uniform format, you'd better clean the data after importing it into excel. You can use m code to go through this process. Of course you can also go through the power query in some of the buttons to achieve. In short, excel provides a conversion button, but still need you to complete the process of data cleaning.
