PDF to Excel Converter Online — Free XLSX Export
Convert PDF tables and text into an editable Excel (XLSX) spreadsheet in your browser—no upload, no account.
- Text is read locally with PDF.js—your file never leaves your device.
- Each page becomes a worksheet; lines become rows, columns are detected from tabs or spacing.
- Tables in image-only (scanned) PDFs may need a dedicated OCR tool first.
About this tool
PDF to Excel Converter extracts readable text from your PDF and builds an XLSX workbook you can open in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or LibreOffice. Each PDF page becomes its own worksheet so multi-page reports stay organized. Because conversion runs locally, financial statements and HR documents stay on your device. For scanned image-only PDFs, run OCR elsewhere first, then convert the resulting text PDF here.
How to use
- Select a PDF containing tables or structured text.
- Run conversion and review detected table output.
- Download or copy data for Excel or Google Sheets.
- Clean merged cells and headers in your spreadsheet as needed.

Understanding the result
- Best results come from PDFs with real text, not flat scanned images.
- Complex layouts may split one table across rows—manual cleanup is often needed.
- Multi-page tables might export as separate sheets or blocks.
- OCR-free extraction cannot recover text from pure image scans.
