How to Convert PDF to Excel Online (Free & Accurate)

If you’ve ever worked with PDF documents containing tables—such as invoices, financial reports, or survey data—you know how cumbersome it is to manually copy and paste data into Excel. ConvertPDFOnline provides a seamless solution with its free, browser‑based PDF to Excel converter. You don’t need to install software or create an account—just upload, convert, and download your editable spreadsheet in seconds.

Why Convert PDF to Excel?

Time-saving: Automate table extraction instead of manually reconstructing spreadsheets.
Accuracy: Preserve cell structure, numbers, and formatting.
Accessibility: Use the resulting Excel file in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or LibreOffice Calc.
No software required: Works entirely in the browser, on Windows, macOS, Linux, or Chrome OS.

Step-by-Step Guide

Go to the PDF to Excel tool page.
Click the Choose File button and select your PDF.
Once uploaded, the tool will analyze the document and extract table data.
After processing, click Download to get your .xlsx file.

The entire process takes only a few seconds for most documents. Larger files with multiple tables may take a bit longer, but the result is always delivered promptly.

Tips for Best Results

Ensure tables in your PDF are clearly defined with visible borders or consistent spacing.
Avoid scanned image PDFs—the tool works best with digital text.
If some data seems misplaced, open the Excel file and adjust as needed—they often require only minor tweaks.

Security & Privacy

Your privacy is important. All conversions are done securely, and your files are automatically deleted from our server shortly after processing. No personal information is stored or shared.

FAQ

Can I convert multiple PDFs at once?

Currently, only one file can be processed at a time, but batch mode support is in development.

Will formulas survive conversion?

No—only values and formatting are preserved. You’ll need to recreate formulas manually.

Is there a file size limit?

We support reasonable document sizes (up to ~20 MB). For larger files, conversion may be slower or may require splitting the file first.
