Frequently asked questions about PDF to Excel conversion
How accurate is your table recognition technology?
Our advanced algorithm accurately recreates table structures with proper headers, merged cells, and formatting preserved. Even complex layouts are handled with high precision, though particularly intricate designs may benefit from a quick review after conversion.
Can your converter handle scanned PDF documents?
Absolutely! Our built-in OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology can extract text and tables from scanned documents. For best results, use clear scans at 300 DPI or higher—the cleaner the scan, the more accurate your Excel data will be.
Is there a file size limit for PDF conversion?
Our system handles PDF files up to 100MB, making it suitable for most business and research documents. While larger files take more processing time, our optimized conversion engine works efficiently even with complex multi-page documents.
Can I extract tables from specific pages only?
Yes, our page range feature gives you precise control. Simply enter specific pages (like '3,5,7') or page ranges (such as '10-15') to convert only the sections you need, saving time and focusing only on relevant data.
How secure is my data during the conversion process?
We prioritize your data security with bank-level encryption during upload and processing. Files are automatically deleted from our servers immediately after conversion, and we never access your document content or store any information from your files.
Can I process multiple PDFs simultaneously?
Yes, with our Premium subscription. The batch processing feature allows Premium users to convert multiple PDFs at once. Simply upgrade to Premium, upload several documents, process them together, and download the results as individual Excel files or as a convenient ZIP package.
