What this tool does—and what it does not.
Results depend on the PDF text layer. Scans need OCR first, and complex nested or borderless tables may require cleanup in Excel.
PDF to Excel FAQ
Before you start.
Can PDFbuff extract tables from a scan?
Not directly. Run OCR first, then convert the searchable result to Excel.
How are worksheets organized?
Each PDF page becomes a separate worksheet.
Will complex tables be perfect?
No. Coordinate-based grouping works best on clear, regular tables and may need manual cleanup.
Is the PDF uploaded?
No. Conversion runs locally in your browser.
