Export PDF to JSON
Download detected PDF tables as JSON. Same job as PDF to JSON — this page is for the export query. Not named-field extract, not invoice or bank remap.
How to export a PDF to JSON
1.Choose a PDF that contains tables, or drop it into the tool.
2.Click Extract JSON. 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 .json file. It includes tables[] (each with name, isTable, and rows) plus extracted text. Use Extract PDF fields if you want named labels.
FEATURES
Same extractor
Export PDF to JSON uses the PDF to Excel job as JSON. Detection runs in your browser. We do not upload the PDF.
Tables, not named fields
The file is { text, usedOcr, tables }. It is not Extract PDF fields, not Invoice to JSON, and not Image to JSON.
Free to start
5 free jobs a day. Upgrade to Pro for larger files and more daily jobs.
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). If no table is found, the page text is placed in one column.
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 to JSON when they want the export phrasing and a structured file. This page runs the same /pdf-to-excel extract, then downloads tables[] as JSON. It is not a second tool in the Tools grid.
That matches PDF to JSON and Extract JSON from PDF. Use PDF to Excel for the workbook, or PDF to CSV for the first table only. Invoice and bank-statement JSON remaps columns; Extract PDF fields fills named labels.
Guests get 5 free jobs a day. The file never leaves your computer.
