Hey All,

I've been racking my brain trying to import a PDF and make it look the same once loaded into Excel365. No matter what I try, I end up with all of my column data, in one row, as opposed to individual rows. I can't split the column because the data in it is random sizes and no discernable and consistent characters/numbers etc. To compound the issue, if I attempt to resize any of the columns, the text/data that's in the column, no longer matches it's adjacent match.

Man-alive, I sure could use a wee bit of help...

**How it SHOULD look

Indeed, converting PDF content to Excel could be complicated. If the PDF isn't sensitive material, could you please upload a sample file (without sensitive data) to a file-sharing site like Dropbox.com or Google Drive and then share the link here? Also, ensure that the link is accessible to anyone.
