Free PDF to Excel
Turn a PDF into a spreadsheet you can actually work with. This reads the text out of a digital PDF, lines it back up into rows and columns, and saves an Excel workbook or a CSV. It runs in your browser, so your file is never uploaded.
Drag and drop your PDF here
One digital PDF with real text. Everything stays on your device.
Your PDF is read on your own device, never uploaded. This reads the real text in a digital PDF and rebuilds the rows and columns. It does not run OCR, so scanned or image-only pages come through empty. Complex tables may need a quick tidy up in your spreadsheet.
Best for digital PDFs with real text, like exports from a spreadsheet, accounting tool or report. Scanned pages need OCR, which this tool does not do.
PDF to a spreadsheet in four steps.
Add your PDF, let the tool read the tables, check the preview and download. It all happens on your own device.
Add your PDF
Drop in a PDF or pick one from your device. It is read on your own computer, never uploaded.
We read the tables
The tool pulls the text out of each page and lines it back up into rows and columns.
Check the preview
See the detected grid before you save, so you know what you are getting.
Download Excel or CSV
Save an .xlsx workbook with one sheet per page, or a CSV, ready to open in your spreadsheet app.
Data you can sort and total.
The numbers come out in real cells, not trapped in a document, so you can pick up where the PDF left off.
Tables into a spreadsheet
Numbers and text from a PDF table land in real cells you can sort, total and edit, instead of stuck in a document.
One sheet per page
Each page of the PDF becomes its own worksheet in the Excel file, so a multi-page report stays organised.
Excel or CSV
Download a ready-to-open .xlsx workbook, or a plain CSV that works in any spreadsheet or script.
Private in your browser
The whole conversion runs on your device. Your PDF and its data are never sent to a server.
Data trapped in PDFs?
Pulling one PDF into a spreadsheet is easy. Pulling hundreds of invoices, statements or reports into your systems every month, cleanly and without hand-keying, is a data-pipeline job. That is the kind of document and data automation we build at Techliphant, shaped around how your business actually works.

Common questions.
Add your PDF, let the tool read the text and rebuild the rows and columns, check the preview, then download an .xlsx workbook or a CSV. It all happens in your browser, so nothing is uploaded and there is no sign-up.
Not really. This tool reads the actual text inside a digital PDF, the kind exported from Excel, accounting software or a report generator. A scanned page is just an image of text, and reading that needs OCR, which this tool does not do. If a page has no real text, it will come through empty.
No. The PDF is read and converted entirely on your own device using your browser. The file and the data in it never leave your computer, so it is safe for statements, invoices and anything confidential.
It does its best. The tool works out rows and columns from where each piece of text sits on the page, which works well for clean, grid-like tables. Complex layouts, merged cells or heavily designed pages may need a little tidying up in your spreadsheet afterwards.
Yes. Alongside the .xlsx download there is a CSV option. CSV opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers and almost any tool that reads data, and it is handy if you want to import the numbers somewhere else.
Every page is read and each one becomes its own sheet in the Excel workbook, named Page 1, Page 2 and so on. The CSV export stacks the pages one after another.
It is free with no sign-up and no watermark. Because it runs in your browser, very large PDFs depend on your own device, but ordinary reports and statements convert quickly.
PDFs do not actually store tables, only text at fixed positions, so the columns have to be worked out from spacing. Tightly packed or unusually aligned tables can trip that up. Try the CSV export, or clean the stray cells up in your spreadsheet, which is usually a quick fix.
This tool is built for one file at a time. If you need to extract data from invoices, statements or reports in bulk, on a schedule, and feed it straight into your systems, that is a data-pipeline job. Building exactly that kind of document and data automation is what we do at Techliphant.
Private by design: this converter runs entirely in your browser, so your PDF and its data are never uploaded or stored. It reads the real text in a digital PDF and does not run OCR, so scanned or image-only pages come through empty. Check the result against your source before you rely on it.
