PDF to Excel

Extract tables from a PDF into editable spreadsheet rows.

Pull tabular data out of invoices, statements and reports without retyping it. The extractor reads the text layer of your PDF, detects column boundaries from character positions, and rebuilds each page as a worksheet you can edit.

Common problems and fixes

The output has one row per line but everything is in column A.

The PDF uses tab-free single-run text. Switch the delimiter mode from “auto” to “fixed width” and set the column positions manually in the preview.

Numbers import as text with a leading apostrophe.

Enable “Coerce numeric strings” in the options panel, which parses values matching a currency or decimal pattern into real numbers.

Our IT team blocked every other online tool because they upload files. This one does not, so pdf to excel finally got approved for use on real data.

Exactly what I needed. PDF to Excel used to be a twenty-minute job with a macro I did not trust; now it takes one drag and one click.
