How should the pdf sheet override the schedule inside revit?

When i read "import pdf to revit" i imagine importing it into the model space. thats all i know.
Are you saying there is an option to import pdf into schdule?

A PDF isn't going to import any model data.

Please see information about DB Link mentioned above.

No. Place the PDFs on sheet in lieu of Revit schedules.

So what is the Excel for? Just do it entirely as Revit schedule then.

Or use an add-in.
