What this does
Extracts the tables from a PDF into a CSV file. If the PDF contains several tables, they're written one after another, separated by a blank row. The file is UTF-8 with a BOM so Excel shows accented characters correctly.
How to use it
- Upload your PDF file.
- Wait while the extraction runs — this uses 2 credits.
- Download the .csv file.
Limitations
This only works for PDFs containing actual tabular data. For a prose document with no tables, use [PDF to TXT](/tool/pdf-converter/pdf-to-txt/) instead — you'll get a clear message if no tables are found. Want separate sheets per table? Use [PDF to Excel](/tool/pdf-converter/pdf-to-excel/).
