Convert PDF Tables to Excel

I have a collection of PDF files that contain structured tables I need moved into a clean, well-formatted Excel workbook so I can run data analysis right away. Your task is a straight conversion—no deduping, reformatting of dates, or other transformations—just an accurate, cell-by-cell transfer.
Key points to keep in mind
• Every table, every row: nothing can be skipped.
• Three columns are critical and must be clearly preserved in the sheet: Dates, Values, and Text descriptions. Feel free to flag them with a subtle background colour or bold header so they stand out the moment I open the file.
• Sheet layout should mirror the PDFs, making it easy for pivoting and charting later.
Deliverable
An .xlsx file (or multiple sheets if that keeps things tidy) that opens without errors and matches the source tables exactly.
I’m flexible on the tool you prefer—Tabula, Adobe Acrobat scripts, Python pandas, or even manual entry—as long as the final spreadsheet is flawless and ready for analysis. Let me know how many PDFs you can process per day and any previous experience you have with similar conversions, and we’ll get started.
