I have a PDF of well over 50 pages that blends narrative text with numerous embedded tables. I need every page reproduced in Microsoft Excel so the spreadsheet looks and reads exactly like the source—same column order, fonts as close as possible, spacing, and page breaks.

Deliverables
• One Excel workbook with a separate sheet for each original PDF page (or another clear structure that still preserves page order)
• All text, table data, and simple graphics positioned to match the PDF layout identically
• No loss of characters, line wraps, or merged-cell problems

Acceptance criteria
When I place the PDF and the Excel file side by side, nothing should be missing or displaced; scrolling through either should feel like the same document in a different format. A quick filter on any recreated table must work without manual cleanup.

I have no template to provide, so please rely on your preferred tools—Adobe Acrobat, ABBYY, Power Query, VBA, or any other OCR and formatting utilities—so long as the final Excel file is clean, editable, and print-ready.

Skills: Visual Basic, Data Entry, Excel, Powerpoint, PDF, Adobe InDesign, Word, OCR, ABBYY FineReader, Adobe Acrobat
