PDF Table to Excel: what you need to know
Copying a table out of a PDF usually turns it into one long line of text. FilesForU reads the position of every word on the page, works out the columns and rows, and writes them into an .xlsx file you can sort, filter and total.
It works best with PDFs created on a computer. For scanned statements, run OCR PDF first so the text can be read.

Questions & answers
Will it detect my columns correctly?
Columns are detected from how the text lines up. Clear, evenly spaced tables convert best; check merged or wrapped cells after converting.
Does it work with scanned PDFs?
Scanned pages need OCR PDF first to turn the image into text.
Can I open the result in Google Sheets?
Yes. The .xlsx opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers and LibreOffice.
Are my files uploaded to your server?
No. This tool runs entirely inside your browser, so your files stay on your device. FilesForU never receives, stores or sees them.
Is it really free?
Yes. Every tool is free with a free account — no daily limit, no watermarks, and files up to 500 MB.
