Pditor

Convert PDF to Excel

Pditor rebuilds real tables instead of dumping text — it reads the page's ruled borders and column layout to fill proper rows, columns, and merged headers, and keeps a table that spans pages as a single sheet. For scanned or borderless tables, Pro's AI vision mode reconstructs the grid from the page image.

FAQ

How do I convert a PDF to Excel?+

Upload the PDF and we rebuild its tables into an .xlsx workbook — real rows and columns, not just text.

Does it reconstruct tables into columns?+

Yes. Pditor reads the page's ruled borders and column layout to rebuild tables into real rows, columns, and merged header cells. For scanned or borderless tables, Pro's AI mode reconstructs the grid from the page image.

Does it work on scanned PDFs?+

The standard converter needs selectable text, so run scans through OCR first — or use Pro's AI mode, which reads tables directly from the page image.

Is it free?+

Yes — the free tier covers 5 runs a day with no account. Pro removes the daily limit.
