Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

Does it accurately extract tables from PDFs?
Results are generally easier to review when the source has searchable text and clear tables. Merged cells, scans, multi-column layouts, and faint numbers can require correction.
Can it convert multiple tables from one PDF?
AI can propose multiple sheets from the extracted text, but it may combine, split, omit, or misalign data sections. Review the workbook.
What Excel format is the output?
The output is a .xlsx file compatible with Microsoft Excel 2007 and later, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice Calc.
What if my PDF is a scanned image?
Use our PDF OCR tool first to convert the scan to searchable text, then convert to Excel.
Is my file kept private?
Text is extracted from the PDF locally. The conversion route receives that extracted text, rather than the original PDF, to generate the spreadsheet.
