Convert PDF tables to Excel, as real cells
PDFLoom finds the tables in your PDF and puts them in an Excel workbook as real cells, one sheet per page. Numbers, currency and percentages become numeric values, so you can sort and sum them.
Tables detected automatically
Columns and rows are found from how the text lines up, with merged cells where a heading spans columns.
Numbers stay numbers
Values such as $48,000, 1,200 and 12% are stored as numbers with matching formats, not as text.
One sheet per page
Each PDF page gets its own sheet, with headings and text above or below the table kept in place.
Private
The conversion runs on your device. Scanned tables need OCR first.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert a PDF to Excel for free?
Open the PDF in PDFLoom, choose Convert, pick Excel (.xlsx), and download.
Will the numbers work in formulas?
Yes. Detected numbers, currency and percentages are written as numeric cells.
What about tables without borders?
Tables are detected from alignment, so bordered and borderless tables both work in most cases.
