Export PDF tables
Preview tables in a PDF, then download an Excel workbook and a CSV. Same job as Extract PDF tables — this page is for the export query. The file stays on your device.
How to export tables from a PDF

2.Click Extract tables. We read text positions in your browser and OCR pages that have almost no text.
3.Preview the first detected table on the page.
4.Download the .xlsx workbook (one sheet per table) and a .csv of the first table.
FEATURES
Same extractor
Export PDF tables uses the Extract PDF tables job. Detection runs in your browser. We do not upload the PDF.
Excel and CSV
You get a workbook with each table as a sheet, plus a CSV of the first table. That is not the same as /pdf-to-excel or /pdf-to-csv.
Free to start

Files stay local
This tool does not store your PDF on our servers.
Best-effort tables
We cluster text by position. Pages with almost no selectable text are OCR’d in your browser (up to 15 pages). Not Tabula-quality.
Works in the browser
Use it from any modern browser on Windows, Mac, or Linux.
Export tables you already have
People search for export PDF tables when they want a preview plus both spreadsheet formats. This page runs the same /extract-pdf-tables job. It is not a second tool in the Tools grid.
Excel keeps every detected table as a sheet. CSV is the first table only. If you want one CSV and nothing else, use /pdf-to-csv. If no table is found, we put the page text in one column.
Guests get 5 free jobs a day. The file never leaves your computer.
