Hey Guys,

I am wanting to decrease the time it takes for me to quote jobs. I have created a template in excel to do the takeoffs on panel schedules so that when I put the schedules in the worksheet, I get a report with each panel and shows what breakers are required in each. This will save me lots of time counting to 42 :)

My questions is, does anyone know how to keep the layout of the panel schedules from PDF to Excel so that when you copy and paste/convert, the conversion isn't all jumbled up? I also understand that the panel schedules do come out more neatly if exporting from autocad to excel but unfortunately for me, I receive the final product in PDF Format.

Anyone have any suggestions or some insight on what I can do? Thank you.

acrobat XI i think will get you there..... download it for a 30 day trial and give it a spin.
XI is currently 25% off. i broke down and bought it... worth the money IMHO.
