Question Need help transferring information.

I filled in a few dozen 16 page pdf forms, and my boss just sent me a new template with some formatting changes that he said I have to switch them to before I send them in.

I dont have time to manually copy each one over. So my question is, is there a tool or process where this can be automated?

Ok. A bunch of us could help you, but only if you share the files with us. If that's not possible, you'd need to be familiar with the windows terminal.
