PDF to EXCEL
Pull text out of a PDF into a spreadsheet, one sheet per page. Free, no signup.
Honest scope: this extracts real text and makes a best-effort guess at column breaks — it works well for simple tabular text, but it isn't true table detection. Complex or merged-cell tables won't come out perfectly. Real table reconstruction is a harder problem we haven't built yet.

FAQ
Does it work on any PDF, or just ones with tables?
It works best on PDFs with clear tabular data — plain paragraph text won't organize into meaningful rows and columns.
Will formatting like bold text or colors transfer?
The focus is the data itself; visual formatting is secondary and may not fully carry over.
What about scanned PDFs?
Text-based PDFs extract most reliably — scanned tables depend on how clearly the text is recognized.
