PDF to Excel Converter

Do you have a table in a PDF and want it in Excel? This free PDF to Excel converter puts the numbers and words from your PDF into an Excel file. You get one sheet for each page.

What is a PDF to Excel converter?

Some PDFs hold tables, like a price list, a bank report or a marks sheet. You cannot calculate with a table in a PDF. This tool reads where each word sits on the page, then builds rows and columns in an Excel file. After that, you can add, sort and count the numbers.

How to use it

  1. Choose your PDF file, or drag it into the box.
  2. Press the "Convert to Excel" button.
  3. Open the downloaded .xlsx file in Excel or Google Sheets.

When can you use it?

  • You got a report as a PDF and need to work with the numbers.
  • You want to sort or add up a price list.
  • You want to copy a table without typing it again.

Good to know

This tool works best for PDFs that were made from a spreadsheet or a report. A very tricky table may need a small fix by hand. A scanned PDF is a picture, so the sheets will be empty.

Is it private?

Yes. The work is done on your own device, so your file is not sent to our servers. Read our Privacy Policy to learn more.
