PDF tables → Excel or CSV
Drop one PDF or fifty. Each table row becomes a spreadsheet row, numbers become real numbers, and every file runs on your own computer. Nothing is uploaded.
How it works
- Your browser reads the text layer of each PDF with pdf.js, served from this site.
- Text is grouped into lines, and columns are found from the vertical gaps that run down the page.
- Every piece of text is checked off as it is placed in a cell. If anything is left over, the file is flagged so you know to look.
- You get one Excel workbook (a sheet per PDF, or one combined sheet) or CSV files.
Good for
- Supplier invoices and price lists you need in a spreadsheet
- Reports exported to PDF by software that has no CSV export
- Many PDFs with the same layout that you want stacked into one sheet
Limits
- Scanned PDFs (pictures of pages) have no text layer. They are detected and reported; OCR is planned.
- A cell that wraps onto a second line is joined back into one cell when "table rows only" is on (with it off, each line is its own row). Check the preview.
- Always check numbers before you import them into accounting software.
