Or - the crude old fashioned way
Print the PDF and then overprint that output with the data appropriately spaced

As in mailmerge into a .doc that is mostly newlines, tabs and spaces

Does the client have the reader or the full-powered suite? You could export
the information to a delimited text file, if they know how to get a pdf to
import it.
