We are looking for someone to take a PDF file of data and input it into an Excel spreadsheet. The PDF file contains 192 pages of data, each page containing 40 rows and approximately 15 columns. Not every cell contains data. I would estimate that about 25% of the cells actually contain data that needs to be transcribed (approximately 28,000 data cells with content) - most are empty. The data in the cells is very short... usually consisting of a 3-4 digit number and sometimes a letter or two.
*** Project Notes (Please read everything): ***
1. All data must be transcribed with 100% accuracy. We will pay a small accuracy bonus if no errors are found in the final result.
2. The data rows actually span several pages and need to be kept within the same row in the spreadsheet. For instance, rows 1-40 actually span pages 2-17 in the PDF. The final spreadsheet should contain 480 total rows (not including the heading rows) and 231 columns.
3. If the cell does not contain data (designated by "......." in the PDFs), please leave the cell completely blank.
4. You do not need to enter the row number (grade) on every page as it is in the PDF... entering the row number (grade) in column A on the spreadsheet will be sufficient.
5. If there are multiple values in a cell, please separate them with a comma (see starter Excel spreadsheet for an example).
6. Some cells contain references to notes at the bottom of the page. You do not need to transcribe the notes and you can remove the designation in the data cell. (for example, if the data cell has "**" to reference the note, you can remove the "**" when transcribing that cell).
7. If you want to submit a sample for us to review (which is preferred), please use the starter Excel spreadsheet [[login to view URL]]. Please do not create your own. The first three rows are done for you so you can refer to those as an example.

Hi, I guarantee you 100% accurate data. I am ready to lose the whole money if you find more than 3 errors in the data. I am confident that I get the bonus payment from you. Project is quite simple and understandable but it would take some time. Please let me know if the timeline too far. I will recheck and communicate with you.
This is a perfect project I would like to bring in my data entry skills and competence in attempting. Accuracy, efficiency and delivery in a timely fashion is all I promise you.
