Frequently Asked Questions

Is PDF to Excel free?

For digital PDFs with clear table structures, extraction uses our coordinate-based engine at no cost. Scanned documents or complex layouts may use AI extraction, which requires AI credits.

What about bank statements?

Bank statements should be processed with our specialized Bank Statement Converter, which has purpose-built extraction for transactions, accounts, and balances with support for 20,000+ banks.

Can it handle multiple tables?

Yes. Each detected table becomes a separate sheet in the Excel file, making it easy to work with documents that contain several tables.

What if my PDF is scanned?

Scanned documents are processed using our AI extraction pipeline, which reads the page images directly. This uses AI credits but handles documents that coordinate-based extraction cannot.

How is this different from Extract Tables?

PDF to Excel outputs a formatted Excel spreadsheet directly. Extract Tables outputs structured JSON data, which is better for developers and automation workflows.

Is my document kept private?

Digital PDFs are processed using coordinate analysis that runs on our secure servers. Files are encrypted during transfer and auto-deleted after processing.
