Frequently asked questions

Does this work on any PDF table?

It works best on PDFs with simple, well-aligned tables. Complex, merged-cell, or inconsistently spaced tables may need manual cleanup after conversion.

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

It reads text that's already selectable in the PDF. For scanned tables, run OCR PDF first, then convert to Excel.
