How to convert PDF tables to Excel

  1. Upload a PDF that contains one or more tables — a bank statement, a GST invoice, a pricing sheet, a supplier ledger.
  2. The tool reads the text positions on every page and groups them into columns based on X-coordinate clustering.
  3. Preview the detected rows in the table view, then click Download XLSX. The file opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or LibreOffice Calc.

What works well — and what is hard

Regular grid tables with clear column boundaries (bank statements, inventory lists, test-score reports) convert directly — rows and columns align cleanly in the output. Complex tables with merged cells or nested sub-tables may need a small Excel pass once the file is open, since merge metadata is not encoded the same way in a PDF as it is in XLSX. For the everyday business tables that most people need to extract — ledgers, invoices, sales reports, class grades — the resulting .xlsx opens ready to sort, filter, and calculate against.

Frequently asked

Will this work on scanned invoices?

No. Scanned tables are images — there is no text layer to read positions from. Run the OCR tool first, which produces a searchable PDF with a proper text layer, then convert that.

Are number formats preserved?

Currency symbols and comma separators are kept as-is in cell values. Excel will usually re-detect them as numbers when you click into the column, but you can also apply a cell format manually.

Multi-page tables — do they merge into one sheet?

Yes. Each PDF page becomes rows in a single sheet, in document order. If the same column headers repeat on page 2, page 3, etc., you will see them as data rows — easy to filter or delete in Excel.

Does it handle Indian number formats (lakhs, crores)?

Yes. 1,23,456.78 is preserved as text. To treat it as a number in Excel, use a simple formula like =SUBSTITUTE(A2,","," ")*1 or the locale setting in File → Options.
