Tables of data locked inside a PDF can feel like a prison for information. You can see the numbers, but you can't sort, filter, or run calculations on them. Manually re-typing data from a PDF into an Excel spreadsheet is time-consuming, tedious, and prone to errors. Thankfully, there's a much better way. A PDF to Excel converter can automatically extract tables from your PDF and turn them into a fully functional, editable spreadsheet. This guide will show you how to do it accurately and for free.

  • Creating Charts and Graphs: Easily visualize your data by creating custom charts and graphs in Excel.
  • Editing and Updating: Correct errors, update figures, or add new information to your data set without needing to go back to the source document.
