PDF to Excel — Convert PDF Tables to XLSX, Free

Pull the tables out of a PDF into a real Excel spreadsheet (.xlsx) — free, right in your browser. Text on the same line becomes a row, wide gaps become columns, and every PDF page becomes its own sheet. No sign-up, and your file never leaves your device.

1. Open your PDF

Click to select a PDF or drag & drop it here

Text on the same line becomes a row, and wide gaps between words become cell boundaries. Each PDF page becomes its own sheet in the workbook. Best on simple, text-based tables; scanned PDFs are pictures and contain no text to extract.

How it works

Open your PDF. Use the button above or drag and drop the file onto the page. The file is read right here in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
We rebuild the table. Text sitting on the same line becomes a row, and wide gaps between words become cell boundaries. Each PDF page turns into its own sheet in the workbook.
Download your spreadsheet. Get a real .xlsx for Excel or Google Sheets — or a CSV of the first page if you prefer plain text data.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this PDF to Excel converter really free?

Yes. Converting PDF tables to an Excel (.xlsx) file — or a CSV — is completely free, with no sign-up and no account. Everything runs in your browser.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. Your PDF is read and converted entirely inside your own browser with JavaScript (pdf.js). The file never leaves your device, so it is safe for invoices, statements and other private documents.

How does the converter find my table?

It reads the position of every piece of text in the PDF. Text on the same horizontal line becomes a row, and wide gaps between words become cell boundaries, so simple text-based tables turn into rows and columns in Excel — one sheet per PDF page.

Will every PDF table convert perfectly?

No — simple, text-based tables convert best. Merged cells, multi-line cells, nested tables and heavy graphics can break the row-and-column pattern and may need cleanup in Excel after conversion.

Why did my spreadsheet come out empty?

That happens with scanned or image-based PDFs: they are pictures of pages and contain no real text to extract. This tool does not include OCR, so a scanned PDF first needs an OCR tool to turn the pictures into text.
