Key features

  • Real .xlsx Output — Downloads a genuine Excel file — not CSV, not a text table.
  • Row Detection — Groups text by vertical position to preserve table row structure.
  • One Sheet per Page — Each PDF page becomes its own sheet, so tables stay separate.
  • Real Numbers — Amounts like 1,250.50 and 45% become numbers you can use in formulas.
  • Column Alignment Preserved — Columns are separated based on the PDF text layout coordinates.

Frequently asked questions

How are tables detected?

Text on the same line becomes a row, and larger gaps between values start a new column. Each PDF page becomes its own sheet.

Are numbers usable in formulas?

Yes. Values like 1,250.50, (12) and 45% are converted to real numbers. Codes with leading zeros, such as phone numbers, stay as text.

What about complex tables?

Simple tables convert well. Merged cells or text that wraps inside cells may need tidying in Excel.

Can I convert bank statements?

Yes. Statements with simple columns convert well, and because everything runs on your device your account details are never uploaded.
