How to Convert PDF to Excel Online
A real PDF to Excel conversion turns the tables in your PDF into actual spreadsheet cells — rows and columns you can sort, filter and calculate. This free tool detects the tables on each page and rebuilds them in a clean .xlsx, with one sheet per page so nothing gets mixed up.

Drop a PDF or click to browse. Your first page appears as a preview.
Choose pages
Convert the whole file, or enter a page range like 1-3, 5.

Get an .xlsx that opens in Excel, Google Sheets or LibreOffice Calc.
Why Convert PDF to Excel Here
Real rows and columns
Tables become actual spreadsheet cells you can sort, filter and run formulas on — not just pasted text.
One sheet per page
Each page's tables land on their own worksheet, so a multi-page report stays organised.
Convert only what you need
Enter a page range to pull tables from just part of a long PDF.
Clean, styled output
Header rows are highlighted and columns are auto-sized so the spreadsheet is ready to use.
Opens anywhere
The .xlsx works in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc and Numbers.
Free with no watermark
No account, no daily cap and nothing stamped on your spreadsheet.
Which PDFs Work Best
This tool works by detecting real tables in your PDF and rebuilding them as spreadsheet cells. It gives the best results with PDFs that contain selectable text and clear table lines — bank statements, invoices, reports, price lists and exported data.
If a page has text but no clear table grid, the tool still pulls the text into rows so you keep your data and can tidy it up in Excel. What it can't do is read a scanned PDF — a photo or scan of a page has no selectable data, so there is nothing to place into cells without OCR. If you upload a scan, the tool will tell you clearly instead of producing an empty file.
Need the reverse? Use Excel to PDF. Working with documents instead of tables? Try PDF to Word.
