Hello, thank you for your videos! They are incredibly informative and present the information into an easily understandable way. I'm noticing that I don't have the PDF to Excel functionality. I have 365 business enterprise and just recently updated to the latest version, but still not there. Would you happen to know what I would need to do to get it?
Hey, Thanks for the tutorial! But I am not able to see the Import from PDF option. All other options available though in the Import from File option. Any idea, if I need to enable something?
Leila, You just cannot imagine what a life saver you have been. I saw many videos trying to explain importing PDF to Excel. Unfortunately, none of those could solve my problem. I get job cards in PDF format and need to convert those to Excel to maintain the material receipt. I had to spend hours converting each job card. Now I can very accurately convert those in a matter of minutes. In fact, before this comment, I managed to convert 10 job cards. Thanks a TON.
Leila, I cannot believe my eyes. You just cannot imagine what a lifesaver you have been. I saw many videos trying to explain importing PDFs to Excel. Unfortunately, none of those could solve my problem. I get Invoices in PDF format and need to convert those line items wise to Excel to maintain the material and quantity, rate and total amount. I had to spend hours converting each Invoice. Now I can very accurately convert those in a matter of minutes. In fact, before this comment, I managed to convert 23 invoices. Thank you very much!
Hi Leila, For some time you have been my go-to tutorial source for Excel questions. Now I've discovered you post regularly and have become a regular. Today you hit a topic that I have wrestled with so many times in the past. Your special gift is clarity and relevancy. You also include the little details that novices like me really need in order to become proficient. Thank you so much!
For loading multiple files in one go, I tested Get Data > From File > From Folder, combined the files (Content column) … and it resulted in a query with the data from each of the files (same document structure). 👍💪 This could be quite convenient to process data in, say, monthly reports, bank statements, etc.
Leila is the Excel guru! Superb video!!! I'd like to add that if you don't see this functionality in your Excel despite having the latest Office 365 it's because it's only supported in Windows 10. Hence if you're running any other version of Windows you'll need to upgrade to Windows 10 (if your running Windows 7 the upgrade is free). Once you've upgraded to Windows 10, you need to update your Excel version by: File --> Account --> Office Updates --> Update Now Now this functionality should exist.
Awwww!! I’m gunna cry!! This is absolutely everything I was struggling with!! UNTIL now! Days of straggles are over! Thank you ! thank you ! thank you!!
Amazing! This is the only video I've seen that shows clearly how to extract multiple pages of a pdf with Power Query. Thank you so much, Leila! This video made me subscribe😃
This is just excellent - you really get around the real stuff (cleaning up real-world data sources) and saving lots of otherwise tedious work. Your solution to the problem with multiple tables is a real time saver. Thank you so much !
Thanks Leila!!! you had save me a ton of work! keep up the awesome work! for those who are having issues not finding the PDF option on your DATA tab, all you have to do is update your excel version if yuo have a subscription to Office 365 go to File>account>office updates>update now, save you work and allow 5 minutes for the update when the app restart you'll find the PDF option avaliable under the DATA tab.
I've watched numerous videos by Leila and i am amazed by what can be done in excel. Compared to most people i know alot of functionality, however compared to Leila i know diddly squat!
Extracting the Table of Contents example was a big winner. Lots of info on combining multiple PDF's, next to nothing on this equally important use case...THANK YOU!
You are a god send Leila. If I knew this a year ago, I would have been muuch faster to gather data at my last internship. Thank you for sharing this. Keep up the great work!
Coffee w/Leila continues … (Maryland - 5:15AM) Another disappointment … how Leila has not been awarded the Noble Prize in Education … for the content and clarity of her training videos … 😒 Once again … an effortless presentation of substantive content … which leads to several ideas popping in my head like fireworks. Thank you … thank you … thank you.
dear roses for you as token of honour u r my mentor since long and i recommend so many them that Leila style is very simple and focus no more unnecessary arguments, keep it up dear
excellent subject selection. Adobe is been giving us hard time converting table content into tables in excel. This is a great addition to power query and you just made it so sample. Thank you for all the time you invest to make a difference and you are succeeding. Great work!
excel is a really complicated piece of software, unlike most people who just put names and numbers think. thank you very much for the amount of effort you're putting into these videos.
The best teacher with a sweet voice and accent.... I have never seen the videos like on this channel in my whole career. Short, to the point and amazing solutions to the day to day and real world problems.
Hi Leila...am following your tutorial. Am amazed by how you put the recipe together. Now, have checked in the power query "Get Data" I can't see where you can convert to PDF but the rest are there ie Folder etc. Does PDF need to be downloaded in the query or anything to do with administration control?? Am using Microsoft 365
Same - on the Data Ribbon, I have all of the various file type option, but there is no Get Data Drop down, which is where one should find the PDF file type. I've looked all over MS help etc, to see why my Excel 2016 Professional does not have this feature enabled, but I cannot find anything to help fix or enable the Get Data drop down on the Data Ribbon.
I do trade documents checking...your vedios of converting pdf to word helpful to me..to do my job fast...usually documents checking done through taking print outs..its been difficult while working from home without printout....it helped me a lot
Thanks, Leila for the wonderful topic. As said by all the buddies it is a very important thing to get pdf table to excel. But when I tried with the function I didn't find the option of pdf in Get Data->From File-> "PDF" is not available in the list. Please help, how to get the same in the list 🙂
For me....it was an add on....a PDF to Excel Converter Tool that I had to request access to thru my IT Dept at work. They said it requires a special license to give access to it, so not everyone in my department has it, and no one has it by default. Only those that request it can get it based on our departments budget and willingness to pay for it.
I had the same problem because seems like both you and I have older versions of Excel. I believe this feature is available for Office 365 users. License is $99 USD/year.
Leila you're a life saver. Love your articles and presentations. One minor comment though. I don't think report is commonly pronouced as ree-port but report as in resort. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!!! After years of trying different PDF to Excel converters for my Clients bank statements, this method works flawlessly! Another awesome video. Thank You!!!
I suspect that it's because not everyone gets access to these features at the same time. So you watch the video and try to do it, but you can't and then you spend a bunch of time trying to figure out why, to find out that this feature just hasn't been rolled out to everyone yet. I think she is subscribed to the beta testers group, so she gets access to things before the rest of us. I think this is the third or fourth video that I have watched where my version of Excel doesn't have the functionality she is demonstrating. It would be helpful if at the beginning, where she says "this is where the feature is located" if she added something like, "This feature hasn't been added for all users of excel at this time, if you don't see it here, you can't do this yet and there is no way for you to add the feature." It's not a bad video, but people only have so much time, so knowing something like that upfront would be helpful for the less savvy excel users. Also some people just dislike stuff and I don't know why. 28 isn't really all that bad.
@@LeilaGharani Don't get offended ma'am. I think the dislike button was mistakenly identified by some as the download button. 😳 Maybe you can make a video for them to correct their mistake. 🤣
Revisiting your Power Query videos - just shared this with my work group! Thanks for all the information! I watch your channel regularly- I've learned about a lot of tools that I didn't even know existed!
Neither do I. But I found some kind of workaround that could work in some circumstances... open the PDF with Word, then select the table and copy/paste it into Excel.
It is a wonderful feature, I am trying hard to have in my Excel. While I am using Office 365 too - the latest version, I tried to uninstall and re-installed (today) - and repair , but I could not find this feature "File Import PDF' under DATA, Leila - any suggestion or advice , for me to get this feature? Thanks in Adv
Thank you !!!!!! The problem I had was that each month , had to load bank statements, that are in PDF into excel. Then use Macros so I can use that information. The issue was that each month the information changes , number on pages. with this example in this Video , it solve my problem. I Save Bank statements by month, and when I need certain month , just save it by file name "bank". and let power query convert excel !!!!! Thank You Again !!!!!!!!
@@MdAlAminosi ah, well there's the answer. Dang. I have 2016 and no desire for a subscription 365. Oh well, I have to find a different solution then. Thanks for the answer.
I don’t know how this randomly came to my UA-cam feed but this is a very useful video for me last year I needed to match invoices amount from my customer pdf file with the amounts in my excel and I had to use a pdf to text app which took a lot of time , thanks for this one I didn’t know this could also be done .
I've been doing this for months with a combination of those tools in the web (very messy results by the way) + fixing the data with PQ... but now this is a big AHHH. Thanks Leila, you're the best!🚀
@@alanmclean1399 I have the same problem. I have tried your suggestion, but it is still not giving me the PDF option. I am from the Netherlands. Could this be a regional thing?
Richard, I’m in the U.K., so I presume I’d be the same region as you. I can only do it on my personal Office 365 account. My work Microsoft enterprise excel does not work, but the version on excel seems to be older. I don’t know if that is any help.
Hello Leila. You explain excel better than anyone. It has made my work life easy. I hope that your You Tube channel gets more success which you really deserve.
Awesome....i mean i used powerquery for getting data from files, database etc but never observed there is option for pdf....its gonna help me a lot...thanks a ton
Thank you for the video! My debt to you is growing. Particularly like the part where you clarified how you can combine multiple tables so you just have to do one query transform like you would look to do in combining multiple Excel files. Was running separate queries :/
This is so good and useful. I find myself exporting PDF to Excel frequently - and almost always a mess with a ton of refinement work required. Thank you!
This is a great tool for getting data from a PDF. Speaking of great things, whomever whipped your hairstyle back into shape did a fantastic job. Let's be honest, the pandemic was turning your highlights into frosted tips.
Most effective and efficient way which was unknown to me. I have learnt lot of things from your regular video. Thanks for sharing knowledge and help us to work smoothly. ❤️
Where , oh where have you been hiding ! How I needed you in February and March ! I waz learning how much I hated computers and all tje complex apps I had never heard of ! I was in the building where IBM was running reel to reel computers a block long ...and now , its that and more in my cell phone !!
PDF = "Perfectly Demonstrated Feature" by Leila! 😁Yet another video with just the right examples and enough duration to get across the point! Especially liked the feature of appending tables by selecting the top folder in Navigator! Didn't knew that! Thanks! 😊👍
Really useful. In the content list example, the section numbers in column one need to be text initially, not decimal. Acommon misconception as 2.9 needs to precede 2.10 so 2.1 to 2.9 need to become 2.01, 2.02 etc.
This is awesome!!! Thank you Leila for sharing this video. 👍 I really like the way you presented it - slowly build up the momentum with different cases. It really helps me better understand the topic.👏
20 years ago I worked for a company that provided our sales and commission on pdf. I actually used a combination of text and value functions to make the data work in Excel. I was then able to massage what I had to better understand what I was selling.
Fantastic video. Leila, THANKS a lot. You have a great talent for explaining. It is a great pleasure to watch your videos and listen to your explanations.

Wow, great video Leila. Power Query is so flexible.

PDF = "Perfectly Demonstrated Feature" by Leila! 😁Yet another video with just the right examples and enough duration to get across the point! Especially liked the feature of appending tables by selecting the top folder in Navigator! Didn't knew that! Thanks! 😊👍
That is just great. I, only last month, was converting bank statements into excel using adobe. Sheer torture! Thank You.
Really useful.
In the content list example, the section numbers in column one need to be text initially, not decimal. Acommon misconception as 2.9 needs to precede 2.10 so 2.1 to 2.9 need to become 2.01, 2.02 etc.
Excellent explanation, as always! Simple, subtle & crisp!!
Madam, nice explanation. previously same process is done in online by pdf to excel converter. this video is use full for me .........
Did find exactly what I needed for combining multiple pdf tables into one, thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!

This is really cool! Thank you Leila!👌
This presentation simplified Power Query. I love it. Thanks so much, Leila.
You're so welcome!
Very clever. I am so fascinated by all the knowledge you can convey. This was completely new and very useful.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You have been very helpful, I am an excel expert but I feel one can always learn more.
20 years ago I worked for a company that provided our sales and commission on pdf. I actually used a combination of text and value functions to make the data work in Excel. I was then able to massage what I had to better understand what I was selling.
This is excellent, thank you. Sometimes Excel doesn't find a table in the PDF though which is vexing.
This lady is a gem. God bless
Very useful video.Kindly make a video on how to extract data from prefilled pdf form and extract the data and put the data into Excel/ Google sheets.
Leila, I can not see the PDF option under the Get Data / From File. I have an O365 account. Do you know what could be happening?
same to me
