PDF Table Extractor
Extract tables from PDF pages into CSV format using pdf.js in your browser. Free, instant conversion with no uploads — works on native PDFs for quick analysis.
Updated June 2026
How this works: uses pdf.js to extract text + position from each character box, then clusters items into rows by Y-coordinate and cells by X-gap. Works well on simple single-page tables. Limitations:scanned PDFs (image-only) won’t work — need OCR first. Tables with merged cells or unusual structure may need manual cleanup. All processing in your browser — file never uploaded.
