The new PDF to Excel service converts your PDF files to XLS, which is a useful tool to know if you have that kind of need. If you don’t, then move along please and don’t clutter the hallway.
Unlike most PDF-to-Excel converters, we successfully detect all tables and discard non-tabular content, leaving you with a clean, easy-to-use XLS file. Other conversion solutions typically convert the entire contents of a PDF into a hard-to-use XLS file, or force you to manually highlight each table before converting them for re-use in Microsoft Excel or another application.
