You see every table before you download. It runs in your browser; the PDF is never uploaded.

PDF to Excel: frequently asked questions
What if no tables are found?
Each line of text becomes a row, split into columns at wide gaps, so you still get the data.
Does it work with scanned PDFs?
No. Scans have no text to read; the tool tells you when that’s the case.
Is it safe for confidential files?
Your file never leaves your device: hellpdf does this in your browser, so nothing is uploaded and there’s no file size limit beyond what your device can handle.
Is it really free?
Yes. It’s free with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit on the tools that run in your browser.
