What is the PDF to Excel Converter?
A PDF to Excel converter extracts rows and columns from PDF tables into an .xlsx workbook so you can sort, filter and calculate. AnyShift reads where each piece of text sits on the page and groups it into columns automatically — ideal for bank statements, invoices, price lists and reports. Each PDF page becomes its own sheet.
If a table isn’t split correctly, switch to One line per row and use Excel’s Text to Columns. Scanned PDFs need OCR first.

- Drop the PDF that contains your table.
- The table is converted automatically with Detect table columns.
- If columns look wrong, choose One line per row and click Convert to Excel again.
- Download the .xlsx and check the numbers before using them.

Frequently asked questions
Are numbers converted as numbers or text?
Values that look like numbers (including currency and thousands separators) are stored as numbers so formulas work.
Can it convert a scanned bank statement?
Not directly — a scan is an image. Run OCR Scanned PDF first, then convert the searchable PDF to Excel.
Does it work with multi-page tables?
Yes. Each page becomes a sheet; you can paste them together in Excel or Google Sheets.
