Convert PDF to Excel

Turn a PDF's tables back into an editable .xlsx spreadsheet, right in your browser.

How it works

  1. Upload your PDF.
  2. Each page's text is grouped into rows and columns based on how far apart it actually sits on the page.
  3. Download a ready-to-edit .xlsx file, one sheet per page.

How accurate is the column detection?

It works well for PDFs with clearly separated columns — statements, invoices, exported reports. A page with tightly packed text, merged cells, or an unusual layout may not split into columns cleanly; you may need to nudge a few cells afterward in Excel or Google Sheets.

Will this work on a scanned PDF?

Not yet — this reads the PDF's own text layer, so a scanned image with no selectable text won't produce any table. Run it through OCR PDF first to add a text layer, then convert the result here.

What happens with a multi-page PDF?

Each page becomes its own sheet in the output workbook, named "Page 1", "Page 2", and so on.

Is my PDF uploaded to a server to convert it?

No — conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your PDF is never uploaded to a server or seen by anyone else.
