Introduction

Working with PDFs often means dealing with tables and data that you need to edit, analyze, or integrate into other systems. Manually retyping that information is time-consuming and error-prone. OkdoSoft's PDF to Excel Converter for Windows solves this by letting you convert PDF documents into fully editable Excel spreadsheets. Whether you're handling financial reports, inventory lists, or research data, this tool preserves the structure and formatting of your tables, so you can start working with your data immediately. It runs entirely on your Windows PC, ensuring your files never leave your computer.

Features

Accurate Table Recognition

OkdoSoft's converter uses advanced algorithms to detect and extract tables from PDFs, maintaining rows, columns, and cell content. It handles both simple and complex layouts, including merged cells and multi-page tables.

Batch Conversion

Convert multiple PDF files at once to save time. You can add entire folders and let the tool process them in one go, with options to merge all tables into a single spreadsheet or keep them separate.

Custom Output Settings

Choose the output format (XLS or XLSX), select specific pages or page ranges, and decide whether to include headers and footers. You can also adjust column widths and formatting to match your needs.

Offline and Secure

All processing happens locally on your Windows machine. No internet connection is required, and your sensitive data never gets uploaded to any server.

Wide Compatibility

Works with Windows 11, 10, 8, and 7. Supports PDFs created by various applications, including scanned documents (with OCR add-on) and password-protected files (with known password).
