About PDF to Excel

Extracting tabular data from a PDF and turning it into an editable Excel spreadsheet is a notoriously painful task — unless you have the right tool. FixMyPDF's PDF to Excel converter recognizes tables, columns, and numeric data inside your PDF and outputs a clean .xlsx file you can immediately analyze, filter, sort, and chart.

Our converter intelligently detects table boundaries even when they don't have visible borders, separates merged cells correctly, and preserves number formats (currency, dates, percentages). For scanned PDFs, OCR converts table images into structured spreadsheet data.

There's no software to install, no sign-up required, and the output is a fully editable .xlsx file that opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers, LibreOffice Calc, and every other spreadsheet program.
