PDF Data Entry
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I have several PDFs containing paragraphs of text that need to be extracted accurately and then laid out with custom formatting. Every heading, sub-heading, bold phrase, italic reference, and bullet list must match the structure I show in a short style guide I will provide.
Scope
• Open each PDF and capture the full text—no images or numeric tables are involved, just continuous prose.
• Reproduce the text in a Word document (or Google Docs if you prefer) following my custom style:
– Specific heading hierarchy (H1, H2, H3)
– Defined font sizes and line spacing
– Bold and italics exactly where they appear in the original
– Consistent paragraph breaks and indentation
• Flag any illegible sections or potential OCR errors for my review.
Deliverables
1. A fully formatted Word (.docx) file for each source PDF.
2. A plain-text backup file (.txt) for each document.
3. A short change log noting pages where the source was unclear or where manual corrections were made.
Quality check: I will spot-check random paragraphs for word-perfect accuracy and style compliance before approving the milestone.
If you are comfortable with precise text extraction and attentive to layout details, this task should be straightforward and quick to turn around.
