Pull tables and data out of a PDF into Excel

Bank statements, transaction reports, invoices, GST filings, share portfolios — so much of the data we actually need to work with arrives as a PDF table, not a spreadsheet. Re-typing the rows is slow and error-prone. This tool uses position-based row detection to extract the tabular data into a usable .xlsx file: one sheet per PDF page, columns aligned to where cells appeared on the original page.

Where this helps

  • Converting bank statements into analysis-ready spreadsheets
  • Pulling transaction and expense data out of downloaded credit-card PDFs
  • Extracting mutual fund, demat, or portfolio statements
  • Bringing GST, invoice, and tax-summary PDFs into Excel for filing
  • Turning lab reports, result sheets, and salary slabs into Excel data

How row detection works

Since PDFs don't store real “table” structures, the tool clusters words by their vertical position to form rows, then groups them into columns by horizontal coordinate. Clean, rule-based tables come through almost perfectly. Complex layouts — merged cells, nested headers, multi-line cells — may need light clean-up after import.

How to use this tool

  1. Upload your PDF.
  2. Click Download .xlsx.
  3. Open in Excel, Numbers, or Google Sheets.

Frequently asked questions

Will it detect my tables perfectly?

Position-based row detection works on most simple tables. Heavily formatted tables — merged cells, nested headers — may need touch-ups after opening the file.

Are scanned PDFs supported?

No — scanned pages are images, not text. Run OCR PDF first to add a text layer, then convert to Excel.

Does every page become its own sheet?

Yes — each PDF page gets its own tab in the workbook. Rename sheets in Excel if you want meaningful labels.

Will formulas come across?

No — PDFs don't store formulas, only rendered values. You'll need to re-add formulas in Excel after import.

Is my data private?

Yes — the PDF is parsed in your browser and never uploaded. Sensitive bank or tax data stays local.
