Frequently Asked Questions
Tables with clear row and column structure using ruled lines or consistent spacing extract most reliably. Tables that span multiple pages are extracted per-page and may need manual joining.
Yes. Choose .xlsx if you want to keep multiple tables as separate sheets, or CSV for a single table you'll import elsewhere.
Only if the PDF has a text layer. Scanned image-only tables need OCR first before extraction can detect the table structure.
Merged cells are approximated as best as possible, but complex merged-cell layouts may need manual cleanup after extraction.
No. Table detection and extraction run entirely in your browser — the PDF is never uploaded.
