Convert PDF to Excel

Convert a PDF into an editable Excel (.xlsx) spreadsheet, turning tables and numbers back into workable, sortable data.

Extract tables and data from a PDF into an editable .xlsx spreadsheet, so you can sort, filter, and calculate instead of retyping.

Tables from a PDF

The PDF is converted into a spreadsheet you can open in Excel, Google Sheets or LibreOffice Calc, so you can work with the figures instead of retyping them. Clean, digitally created tables such as statements and price lists work best; tables with merged cells or text that wraps across lines usually need tidying.

Scanned documents contain no text positions, so the tables cannot be detected. Use OCR PDF first.

How to use this tool

  1. Upload the PDF you want to convert.
  2. Wait a few seconds while the tables are extracted.
  3. Download the .xlsx file and open it in Excel or Sheets.

Frequently asked questions

Does this work on any PDF?

It works best on PDFs with real, structured tables; PDFs that are scanned images need OCR PDF first to extract text.

Will each PDF page become a separate sheet?

Extracted tables are laid out into the spreadsheet in the order they appear in the source document.

Tips

  • Check number columns after converting. Thousands separators and currency symbols can arrive as text.
