For the following text, summarize the idea,
extract meaningful questions and give possible answers.

I have a large workbook in excel with multiple pages, but the bring your own data function doesn’t allow me to upload an excel workbook. As I want to keep the table format, what would be the best thing to convert this to?

I can convert to word and then pdf to keep the formatting nice, but this will cut off columns as the worksheet is too large.

I can convert it to a txt file which keeps all the data but the formatting is all over the place.

What’s the optimal solution for handling large workbooks in a bring your own data model?
