PDF to CSV Converter
Read the selectable text and positions in a PDF to infer simple rows and columns, then download UTF-8 CSV. Blank lines separate pages; review the result against the original.
This tool runs in your browser. Selected files are not sent to our server.
How to use it
- Choose a PDF with selectable text.
- Create the CSV and open it in a spreadsheet.
- Check each page’s rows, columns, and values against the PDF.
What to know
Columns are inferred from text positions. Scanned or image-only PDFs have no text to extract, and complex or irregular tables can be misaligned. Blank rows separate pages. Formula-like cells beginning with =, +, - or @ are prefixed with an apostrophe to prevent execution when opened in a spreadsheet; ordinary signed numbers are left unchanged. Password-protected PDFs are unsupported. Limits: 25 MB, 50 pages, 1,000 rows, and 12 inferred columns.
Frequently asked questions
Can I convert a scanned PDF?
No. This needs selectable text. Run OCR first for image-only pages.
Will every table be perfect?
No. The tool infers simple columns from positions; review and correct complex tables.
Does the PDF leave my device?
No. Extraction runs in the browser.
