Dear Audrina:
There is still not an application inside Excel or Acrobat Reader that allows to convert data from PDF extension files to Excel Application, but you can't find web pages that help you to convert this file. One of them is https://www.freepdfconvert.com/. On this page you will find on the left side a menu; you have to choose the option PDF TO WORD EXCEL:
Then you will find a form where you can select the file location of the PDF file in your hard disk, the password file if it is protected, the type of format you want to convert (Word, Excel or RTF), and the option of send the converted file to your e-mail. When you finish filling the options you press CONVERT YOUR FILE.
The conversion will take a few seconds depending the size of the file. Then you can download the converted Excel file immediately or review your mail if you have activated the option of sending the e-mail.
This web page only has a restriction: You can only convert one file every 30 minutes. If you need to convert to PDF files you will have to wait half and hour or you will have to pay a membership to the web page.
I expect this information will be useful for you.
Best Regards,
German
