NGPDFs

PDF to Excel

Find table-shaped text geometry in a PDF, preview every candidate with an explainable confidence score, and export only approved high-confidence tables. Each selection becomes an editable Excel worksheet; numeric-looking values stay visible for review instead of being silently reinterpreted.

Table extraction, not arbitrary page conversion: only recurring aligned rows and columns receive a confidence score. Low-confidence prose is not forced into spreadsheet cells.

How it works

  1. 1Open a PDF, select pages, and optionally enable OCR for scans.
  2. 2Local layout analysis scores repeated rows using column alignment, consistency, header emphasis, density, and numeric signals.
  3. 3Preview candidates and select only tables meeting the export threshold.
  4. 4Download a validated XLSX with one worksheet per selected table.

Frequently asked questions

▸Why can’t I select a low-confidence table?

NGPDFs requires at least 68% confidence to avoid quietly turning parallel prose or irregular layouts into misleading spreadsheet cells.

▸Are numbers recalculated?

No. Values are exported as displayed strings so leading zeros, separators, signs, and currency marks remain available for human verification.

▸Does it extract every page into a sheet?

No. This tool exports detected tables only. Use Extract Text or PDF to Word for narrative content.
