Free PDF to CSV Converter
Pull the tables out of a PDF, such as a bank statement, invoice or report, and download them as a CSV file that opens in Excel or Google Sheets. The PDF is read in your browser and is not uploaded.
Free, no sign-up. Your files never leave your device.
How to use it
- Drop a PDF into the box, or click to choose one.
- Check the preview. Each line of the PDF becomes a row, and each block of text in it becomes a column.
- If columns are merged or split, adjust the column spacing and the preview updates.
- Download the CSV and open it in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers.
Which PDFs convert well?
This online PDF to CSV converter reads the text that is stored in the PDF. It works best with PDFs made by software:
- Bank and credit card statements downloaded from online banking.
- Invoices, receipts and price lists exported from accounting software.
- Reports and tables saved as PDF from Excel, Word or Google Sheets.
Scanned PDFs
A scanned PDF is a picture of a page, so there is no text to extract and the result is empty. Take a screenshot of the page and use the free image to text (OCR) tool, then paste the text into a spreadsheet.
Converting a bank statement PDF to CSV
Drop the statement in, then move the column spacing slider until date, description and amount sit in their own columns in the preview. Headers and footers repeated on every page become extra rows, which are easy to delete in Excel or Google Sheets after you download the CSV.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I convert a PDF to a CSV file?
- Drop your PDF into the box, check the preview of the rows and columns, adjust the column spacing if needed, and download the CSV. It takes a few seconds and needs no software or sign-up.
- Can I turn a bank statement PDF into CSV?
- Yes. Bank statements are the most common use. As long as the PDF contains real text and not a scanned picture, the rows are read straight into columns you can open in Excel or Google Sheets. Because the file is processed in your browser, it is never uploaded.
- Is this PDF to CSV converter free?
- Yes, with no sign-up, no watermark and no page limit.
- Is my PDF uploaded?
- No. The PDF is read in your browser with Mozilla's PDF.js, so it stays on your device. That makes it safe for bank statements and invoices.
- Why is my result empty?
- The PDF is probably a scan, which is a picture of text rather than text. Take a screenshot of the page and use the image to text tool instead.
- Why are some columns merged or split?
- PDFs store text by position, not as real tables, so columns are worked out from the spacing. Adjust the column spacing slider until the preview looks right.
- Can I open the CSV in Excel?
- Yes. The file is saved as UTF-8 with the marker Excel needs, so accented letters and Urdu text display correctly.
