Convert PDF tables to Excel
Turn tables and text in a PDF into an editable spreadsheet in a few clicks. Ideal for invoices, statements, price lists and reports.
🛡️
Stays in your browser
The conversion runs on your own device. Your PDF is never uploaded to a server, so sensitive reports and financial papers stay private.
🧮
Numbers you can calculate with
Figures become real numeric cells, so SUM, sorting and filters work straight away without retyping anything.
⚡
Simple and instant
Drop your file, pick one sheet or one sheet per page, and convert. A preview shows the result before you download.
🧰
XLSX or CSV, free
Download a standard Excel file or a plain CSV. No watermark, no limits on how often you convert, no distracting ads.
Extracts the text and tables from each PDF page into an editable Excel (XLSX) or CSV file. It works best on PDFs with clear table structures and gridlines, while tables without borders, merged cells and multi-row headers may need manual fixing afterward. Formulas are not recovered, only the values shown in the PDF, and scanned PDFs need OCR PDF first.
Good to know
Works best on PDFs with clear table structures and gridlines rather than plain-text data.
Check merged cells and multi-row headers after conversion — these sometimes need manual adjustment.
For financial reports with multiple tables per page, verify each table landed in the correct sheet.
Tables without visible borders or ones formatted with just spacing can be harder to detect accurately.
Formulas aren't recovered — only the calculated values shown in the PDF are extracted.
Scanned (image-based) PDFs need OCR PDF run first, since this tool reads the text layer.
Troubleshooting
Columns aren't splitting correctly: Columns are detected from the horizontal position of the text, so a clear gap between columns is needed. Very tight columns may end up in one cell — use Excel's Text to Columns to split them.
A page is marked "no extractable text": That page has no selectable text layer, usually because it's a scanned image. Run OCR PDF first, then convert the result.
"Conversion failed": The source PDF may be corrupted. If it asks for a password, enter it when prompted. Try Unlock PDF or Repair PDF first.
Rows look misaligned across pages: Each page is processed independently (separated by a blank row, or placed on its own sheet if you choose "One sheet per page") — layout differences between pages (headers, footers, varying column counts) can shift how rows line up.
Frequently asked questions
Most standard tables convert well. Complex layouts, merged cells, or unusual formatting may require minor adjustments after conversion.
Scanned PDFs require OCR before table data can become editable. The quality of the scan affects the final results.
The converted file is provided in a standard Excel-compatible format that works with Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, and similar spreadsheet applications.
PDFs aren't designed to store spreadsheet structures. Documents with irregular table layouts or overlapping content may need a small amount of manual cleanup after conversion.
