When to use PDF to Excel
Your bank sends monthly statements as PDFs, and the finance team needs the transaction rows in a spreadsheet to run pivot tables and spot anomalies. Upload the PDF here, and PDF.js extracts every text token with its position on the page; the xlsx library then groups those tokens into rows and columns and writes a .xlsx file — all on your own machine, so the statement never touches a third-party server. This works equally well on rate cards, invoice line items, and pricing grids exported from accounting software. The output is a starting point: check column alignment on complex multi-section tables before relying on it. Download the .xlsx and open it in Excel or Google Sheets.
