How to convert PDF to Excel
- Tap Choose file and pick a text-based PDF, such as a bank statement or price list.
- Choose Excel (.xlsx) or CSV, and one sheet per page or all pages in one sheet.
- If columns join together or split too much, change the column detection between Normal, Sensitive and Loose.
- Press the button and download your spreadsheet.
Good for statements, price lists and reports
Typing numbers from a PDF into Excel by hand is slow and easy to get wrong. This tool reads the position of each word on the page and rebuilds the rows and columns, so you can total a bank statement, filter a price list or compare two reports in a spreadsheet.
Safe for private documents
Conversion happens inside your own browser. Your file is not uploaded to our server, so Aadhaar copies, marksheets, bank statements and office papers stay on your phone or computer. There is no sign-up, no daily limit and no watermark, and it works in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on Android, iPhone, Windows and Mac.
Limits to know
- It needs a PDF with real text. Scanned pages are pictures and would need OCR first.
- Tables with merged cells or text that wraps inside a cell may need a little tidying in Excel.
- Check totals after converting, especially for financial data.
Column detection explained
A PDF does not store a table as rows and columns. It stores each word with its position on the page. The tool groups words that sit on the same line into a row and uses the gaps between them to find the columns. Normal works for most bank statements and price lists. Sensitive splits on smaller gaps, which helps when columns are close together. Loose needs bigger gaps, which helps when a column contains text with spaces, like long names or addresses. Numbers with commas, such as 1,25,000, are turned into real numbers you can add up.

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert a bank statement PDF to Excel?
Choose the statement, pick Excel and All pages in one sheet, and download. Check the columns and totals afterwards.
Why are my columns wrong?
Try the Sensitive setting for more columns or Loose for fewer, then convert again.
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
No. A scan has no text inside, so there is nothing to put into cells.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The file is processed inside your browser and is never sent to our server.
Can I get a CSV instead?
Yes. Choose CSV before converting.
