No watermarksPDF to CSV
Export the first detected table from a PDF as a CSV file. Detection runs in your browser.
How to convert a PDF to CSV
- Choose a PDF that contains a table, or drop it into the tool.

- Preview the first detected table on the page.
- Download the .csv file and open it in Excel, Sheets, or any spreadsheet app.
Features
Private
Table detection runs in your browser. We do not upload the PDF.
CSV output
The first detected table downloads as a UTF-8 CSV you can open anywhere.
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. Other server tools delete files after 60 minutes.
Best-effort tables
We cluster text by position. Pages with almost no selectable text are OCR’d in your browser (up to 15 pages).
Works in the browser
Use it from any modern browser on Windows, Mac, or Linux.
When to use PDF to CSV
Use this when you need a simple spreadsheet from a PDF table and do not need multiple Excel sheets.
CSV keeps the first detected table. If you want every table as a separate sheet, use PDF to Excel or Extract PDF tables.
If no table is found, we put the page text in one column so you still get a file. For scans, run OCR PDF first.
