PDF to Excel
Extract tables to .xlsx
PDF to Excel is on the roadmap. In the meantime, explore the other pdf tools.
What is PDF to Excel?
Pull tabular data from a PDF into a clean .xlsx spreadsheet. The tool detects table grids in the document and reconstructs rows and columns, preserving cell structure where possible. Best for PDFs that started life as a spreadsheet — bank statements, invoices, financial reports, exported BI dashboards. Free-form text-heavy PDFs do not convert cleanly; use PDF to Word for those instead.
How do I use PDF to Excel?
- Drop a PDF that contains tables onto the upload zone.
- Click Convert.
- Review the detected sheet — each table becomes one tab.
- Click Download to save the .xlsx.
When should I use PDF to Excel?
PDF to Excel is for grid data. For prose, use PDF to Word. For visual export of pages as images, use PDF to JPG. For scanned PDFs, run PDF OCR first; the structured-table detection only works on text-native PDFs.
How does the tool find tables?
It detects horizontal and vertical alignment of text runs to reconstruct grid structure. Works best with clearly-bordered tables; complex multi-cell merges and irregular layouts may require manual fixes after import.
Does each PDF page become one sheet?
Each detected table becomes one sheet. Pages with multiple tables produce multiple sheets; pages with no detectable table are skipped.
What if the PDF is a scan?
Scanned PDFs need OCR first — text is not actually present until then. This tool only reads text-native PDFs.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Your files never leave your device, and there is no server component for this tool.
