Hey everyone,

I have recently converted from a PDF to Excel and have various formatting issues which I am trying to fix.

Below is an example of the table once converted.

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP

3123456test aN/Aremark 2

19remark 10
20remark 11
21remark 12
22remark 13
23remark 14
24remark 15
Sheet1



What I am looking for is the following format.

Book1
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP
27Ref 1Ref 2TitleDocsTimeStatusRemarksLastNext 1Next 2Next 3
28123456test atestN/Aremark 1 remark 2 remark 3

Sheet1


Is there a method to do this quickly or better to just go through manually?
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
This can be done using Power Query to import a PDF.
There are many Youtube channels that demonstrate how to do this. You have Power Query in your version of excel.
Channels by Mr. Excel, ExcelIsFun, MyOnlineTrainingHub, and Leila Gharani are always informative.
