About this tool

A PDF stores text as positioned glyphs, not as a table, which is why copy-pasting a price list produces one long line. This converter reads the text layer with pdf.js, groups fragments by their vertical position into rows, splits columns on the horizontal gaps, and writes a CSV. It works best on digitally produced PDFs — invoices, statements, reports. Scanned images need OCR first, and the tool tells you honestly when it finds no text layer instead of handing you an empty sheet. Your file never leaves this page — pdf-lib runs in your browser, there is no upload endpoint on this site, and the document is dropped from memory when you close the tab.
