Convert PDF to Excel
Pull tables out of a PDF into a real .xlsx workbook — one sheet per page, numbers as numbers.
Tables are detected from the positions of the text on the page. Ruled, evenly aligned tables convert well; irregular layouts may need cleaning up in Excel. Scanned PDFs need OCR first.

Bank statements, price lists, reports and invoices arrive as PDFs, and re-typing their tables is slow and error-prone. This converter finds tables by looking at how text lines up in columns, then writes each one into an Excel worksheet with cells in the right rows and columns. Values that look like numbers are stored as numbers so formulas work immediately.
The workbook is built in your browser, so financial and personal data never leaves your computer. Choose “all text” mode to get every line of the document into rows instead of only the detected tables.

Frequently asked questions
No tables were found — why?
The text in your PDF may not line up in columns (or it is a scan). Try “All text” mode, or run OCR PDF first for scans.
Are merged cells supported?
Cells are placed by column position; merged headers may spread across columns.
Is my file uploaded?
No. The conversion runs inside your browser; you can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads.
