How it works

Three steps from PDF to rows

1

Upload

Drop in a PDF up to 20 MB. It is deleted as soon as the conversion finishes.

2

Preview

We detect ruled tables and space-aligned tables on each page and show you every one before you download.

3

Download

Get one XLSX workbook (a sheet per table) or CSV files. Numbers are stored as numbers in XLSX.

Why pdf2rows

Built for the tables people email you as PDFs

▦

Ruled tables

Tables with ruling lines are detected cell by cell, so rows and columns line up the way they do on the page.

≡

Space-aligned tables

Tables without lines go through a fallback row parser that handles most simple layouts.

◉

Preview first

See every table, its page and its size before you download anything.

#

Real numbers

In XLSX, numbers are stored as numbers, ready to sort, filter and total.

▤

Your layout

One sheet per table, or tick a box to stack every table on one sheet. CSV too.

🔒

Private by default

Your file is deleted as soon as the conversion finishes. We don't keep copies of your PDF or your tables.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Still unsure? Ask in the forum.

Do you keep my PDF?

No. The file is deleted as soon as the conversion finishes, and we don't keep copies of your PDF or your tables.

Does it work with scanned PDFs?

Not yet. pdf2rows reads the text layer of a PDF. Scanned images without a text layer need OCR first, which is not supported today.

What kinds of tables work best?

Tables with ruling lines work best. Tables aligned with spaces (no lines) are handled by a fallback row parser, which works on most simple layouts but can merge or split columns on complex ones. Always check the preview.

What are the limits?

The free plan converts up to 5 pages per day, files up to 20 MB. Pro removes the daily page limit (up to 300 pages per file). Business also has no daily limit and takes files up to 50 MB and 1,000 pages.

How does the free trial work?

Your first Pro or Business subscription starts with a 7-day free trial. You enter a card at checkout, and you are not charged if you cancel before the trial ends.

Can I switch between Pro and Business?

Yes, from your account page. Upgrading charges the prorated difference right away (nothing during a free trial); switching down credits unused time to your next invoice.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Pro and Business are month-to-month and you can cancel at any time; you keep access until the end of the paid period.
