Frequently Asked Questions
- Can this extract tables from any PDF?
- It works best with selectable-text PDFs where table rows have visible spacing. Scanned PDFs, photos, and heavily merged tables may need OCR or manual cleanup.
- Can I try it before using my own file?
- Yes. Click the sample invoice button in the extractor to load a one-page PDF locally, or download it and upload it yourself. Compare the editable preview with the expected rows shown here.
- Can I choose only some pages?
- Yes. Leave the page field blank for the whole PDF, or enter ranges like 1-3,5 to extract selected pages.
- Can I fix extraction mistakes before downloading?
- Yes. The preview is editable. Correct cells, remove noisy rows, and export the edited table.
- Which formats can I download?
- CSV and TSV open in Excel, Google Sheets, and Numbers. JSON is useful for code, and HTML creates a portable table report.
- Is the extraction private?
- Yes. The current extractor uses pdf.js in your browser. The PDF is not uploaded for this workflow.
