iAbout PDF to Excel

Convert PDF content into editable Excel spreadsheets directly in your browser. The tool uses PDF.js to extract all text content with position data, then applies a column-detection algorithm to identify table structures and group text into rows and columns. Switch between table mode (detected tables) and full-text mode (all extracted text). Download as .xlsx format compatible with Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice. Works best with digitally created PDFs that contain actual text — scanned image PDFs are not supported.

?FAQ

What types of PDFs work best?
Digitally created PDFs with selectable text work best. Scanned image PDFs need OCR software first.
How accurate is the table detection?
The algorithm detects column structure based on text X-positions. Simple tables with clear column gaps work very well. Complex nested tables may need manual cleanup in Excel.
Can I export all text if no tables are detected?
Yes — switch to "All Text" mode to export the complete text content of the PDF organized by line.
Is my PDF uploaded to a server?
No. Text extraction runs entirely in your browser using PDF.js. Your file stays on your device.
