01How it works

How to convert a PDF to Excel

  1. 01

    Choose the PDF

    Drag the file onto this page or press “Choose a PDF”. “Other table” is already selected.

  2. 02

    Check the preview

    The table appears with its columns. A table that continues over several pages is joined into one sheet, and the header repeated on each page is removed.

  3. 03

    Download Excel

    Numbers, percentages and dates arrive as real values, so formulas, sorting and filters work straight away.

02The result

What you get

Columns are found from the layout of the page: wherever text lines up, a column starts. The header row is bold, frozen and has filters.

Example from the sample price list. Codes with leading zeros and long reference numbers stay as text, so nothing is lost.

03What it reads

Tables it handles well

  • PDFs created by software: accounting and ERP exports, invoices, price lists and reports
  • Tables that continue over many pages, with the header repeated on each page
  • Numbers with thousands separators, decimals with a dot or a comma, percentages and negative numbers in brackets
  • Dates in day/month or month/day order, with the order worked out from the whole table
  • All pages in one sheet, or one sheet per page
  • Password-protected PDFs

04Good to know

A bank statement? Use the statement converter

For bank and card statements, the bank statement converter does more: it puts money in and money out in separate columns, sorts the rows by date and checks every balance.

Private by design

Nothing is uploaded: the PDF is opened and converted by your own browser. That matters for invoices, payroll reports and anything else you would rather not send to someone else's server.

Limits

Scans and photos contain pictures of text, not text, so they need text recognition first. Tables drawn as images, and cells merged across several columns, may need a little tidying in Excel.

05Questions

Questions about PDF to Excel

Is this PDF to Excel converter free?

Yes, with no sign-up and no limit on files or pages.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The conversion happens in your browser, and the page is technically blocked from sending your data anywhere else.

Will the numbers be numbers in Excel?

Yes. Amounts, quantities and percentages are written as numbers with the right format, and dates as real dates. Codes such as 000123 keep their leading zeros as text.

Can it convert a multi-page table?

Yes. All pages go into one sheet by default and repeated header rows are removed. You can also choose one sheet per page.

Can I convert a scanned PDF?

Yes. Choose text recognition and the document language. Recognition runs in your browser. Check the result against the original, especially digits and decimal marks.

Can I get CSV instead?

Yes. Press “Download CSV” or use the PDF to CSV page.
