Computer bill format pdf for Export

Hi everyone, Kevin here. Today I want to show you how you can  convert a PDF file to an Excel spreadsheet. PDF is by far one of the most popular file types   and you might have some data hidden away in a PDF  that you'd like to analyze in Microsoft Excel.   Unfortunately, it's not incredibly intuitive  for how you could take data from a PDF   and bring it into Microsoft Excel.  It turns out it's pretty easy to do,   and I'm going to show you step-by-step how you  can get your data out of a PDF into an Excel file. All right, well why don't we jump  on the PC and get started here? Here I am on my PC, and I have a PDF file  sitting on my desktop and I'd like to bring   the data into Excel to analyze it. Let's  take a quick look at what's in the PDF. I have the PDF file open and  it's a fairly typical PDF. I have an image at the top. I have some text  below it, and then here's the portion of the   PDF that I want to bring into Excel. It's a table  with some sales data for the Kevin Cookie Company. How do we get this into Excel? Well, let's open up Microsoft Excel and I'll  show you how. I have Microsoft Excel open,   and this is the latest and greatest  version that comes with Microsoft 365. To bring a PDF into Microsoft Excel, first  off, let's click into a blank workbook. This drops us into a blank workbook and  right now it's a completely blank canvas.   To bring a PDF into Microsoft Excel, let's go onto  the top tabs and click on the one that says data. Once we click on data, this opens up the  data ribbon and over on the left-hand side,   there's an option that says get data. Let's  click on this. Within the get data drop down,   there are many different places where we  could pull in data into Microsoft Excel. For instance, you could pull data in from files,  from databases, from Azure. Many different places,   even from the web. Today, though, we're going  to focus on how to pull data in from a PDF. A PDF is a file, so let's click on  the first one that says from file. Within the from file list, you'll see lots of  different file types that you could pull data in,   and here's the one that we're  interested in. It says from PDF. Let's click on this one. This opens up the Windows  file picker. Navigate to where you have your PDF   file on your computer. My file happens to be  sitting right on the desktop called the Kevin   Cookie Company sales by location. I'm going to  click on this file and then click on import.   This opens up the Microsoft Excel Navigator and  Excel has analyzed my PDF to see if there's any   data within the PDF. Here I see the top-level PDF  and within here it identified two different items. It found the table within the PDF,   and this is exactly the table that I  want to bring into Microsoft Excel. It also identified the overall page, but I  don't want to bring in things like the text   or the image or other things. This isn't what  I'm looking for, so I'm going to click on table.   Now let's say that you have a PDF  with many different tables of data.   Up here, you could click on select multiple  items, and then you could go through and select   all the different tables that you  want to bring into Microsoft Excel. I'm going to uncheck this since  I just have one table of data and   I'm going to click on table 001, that's on Page 1. Down below in the bottom right-hand  corner, I have two different options. I could load it directly into Excel and  I'm going to do that in just a moment,   and I also have the option to transform the  data. Now transforming the data allows me   to make some modifications to the data  before I bring it into Microsoft Excel. For instance, let's say that  I didn't want to bring in the   store number column or maybe  I want to add another column   with a calculated field, I could do that  before importing it into Microsoft Excel. However, today I just want to bring the table  in as is, so I'm going to click on load. This loads my data directly into Microsoft  Excel and it's exactly like it looked in my PDF. I didn't have to copy and paste the data in. I didn't have to retype things,   instead I simply went to get data and now  all of my data shows up in Microsoft Excel. I didn't have to get any plugins, I  didn't have to use any other applications. Instead, all I have to do is use Microsoft  Excel and I can get data in from a PDF. Now that my data is in the  Excel spreadsheet, I could do   any type of analysis that I want because it's  now out of the confines of a PDF document. All right, well that was a quick look at  how you can take data that's stuck in a PDF,   and you could bring it into Microsoft Excel  to do additional analysis on your data.
