How to Convert PDF to Excel
Upload PDF Files
Drag and drop your PDF files into the workspace area above, or click "Choose Files" to select them from your computer or mobile device.
Choose Settings
Select your target spreadsheet format (XLSX, XLS, or CSV). You can also set a page range to extract tables from specific pages only.
Convert & Download
Click "Convert to Excel" to start the process. Once the table parsing is completed, download your editable spreadsheet file instantly.
Extract Tables and Data from PDF
Manual transcription of tables from PDFs into spreadsheets is slow and error-prone. Our converter uses smart table detection to recognize cell grids, alignment, and formatting, turning PDF data into clean, functional spreadsheets immediately.
Convert PDF to XLS, XLSX, and CSV
Choose your target output format depending on your application. We support the standard XML-based XLSX format for modern Excel installations, the legacy XLS format for backward compatibility, and plain CSV text formatting for developers wishing to import data grids directly into databases.
Convert Selected Pages or Whole Document
If you only need to extract a table from page 5 of a large PDF report, you can check the "Custom Range" selection and enter page 5 to 5. The engine will isolate that specific page, parse its data grids, and deliver the parsed spreadsheet without converting unnecessary pages.
Convert Multiple PDF Files to Excel
Process multiple PDF files in parallel. Upload up to 10 PDF documents at the same time. The backend will parse each PDF into a separate spreadsheet and pack them into a single ZIP archive for fast download.
When Should You Convert PDF to Excel?
PDF is a great format for preserving visual appearances, but it is not built for data analysis or math calculations. When you convert your PDF report to Excel, you can use cells, formulas, filters, and graphs to calculate statistics and visualize datasets.
Secure Online PDF to Excel Conversion
We prioritize your document security. All file transfers are performed over secure, encrypted HTTPS connections. Once your conversion is complete, both the original PDF files and the output Excel documents are automatically and permanently deleted from our servers after exactly 1 hour. We never keep logs, share your data, or inspect your spreadsheets.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this PDF to Excel converter free?
Yes, MarsPDF is completely free to use. You can convert files to XLSX, XLS, or CSV formats without registering, paying a subscription fee, or running into hidden limits.
Can I convert scanned PDFs into Excel spreadsheets?
Yes. If your PDF contains scanned documents, our table detection parser will extract the rows and lines. For optimal text recognition in scanned images, we recommend using our specialized OCR PDF tool.
Are my documents secure on MarsPDF?
Yes. All communication runs over secure, encrypted HTTPS. Your uploaded files and converted outputs are automatically and permanently deleted from our servers after exactly 1 hour.
Will my Excel formulas be preserved?
Since PDF files only store static text rather than math formulas, the output spreadsheets will contain raw numbers and strings representing the cell values. You can easily write formulas on top of them after downloading.
