Before you start: Text rows are exported to cells. This does not reconstruct tables or formulas. Scans need OCR first.

PDF to Excel FAQs

Will tables and formulas be reconstructed?

No. This tool exports extracted text rows into cells. Optional gap-based column detection is approximate. It does not reconstruct reliable table structure, restore formulas or read scanned tables using OCR.

Are my documents uploaded?

Local PDF tools process documents in your browser. Choosing a file alone does not upload it. Server conversion sends the chosen file only after you confirm. Account storage is optional: Save to account uploads that result or draft to your private library.

Are my PDFs encrypted?

The website uses HTTPS to encrypt the connection. Local processing does not automatically password-encrypt your input or downloaded PDF. No website can guarantee 100% security; use a trusted device and keep your original files.

How do I save a PDF on an iPhone?

After creating the result, use Save / Share and choose Save to Files. If a download opens a preview, use the browser’s Share control to save a copy.
