Question 1

Is there a file size limit for PDF uploads?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The maximum upload size depends on the tool’s current limits and your browser’s available memory, since larger PDFs take longer to process and may time out. If a file fails to upload or convert, try splitting the PDF into smaller parts or converting only the pages you need.

Question 2

Will the formatting of tables be preserved in the Excel output?

Accepted Answer

The converter aims to keep the original table structure, including rows, columns, and cell alignment, and it preserves common formatting where possible. Results can vary with complex layouts, merged cells, multi-line headers, or tables that are visually aligned but not truly tabular in the PDF.

Question 3

Can I convert scanned PDF documents to Excel?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but scanned PDFs are images, so the tool must use OCR to detect text and table structure before creating the Excel file. OCR accuracy depends on scan quality, resolution, and whether the document is skewed or blurry, so you may need to review and correct the output.

Question 4

How secure is my data during the conversion process?

Accepted Answer

Your PDFs are processed only for the purpose of conversion, and the tool is designed to handle files in a secure workflow. For sensitive documents, use trusted devices and networks, and remove unnecessary pages before uploading to minimize exposure.

Question 5

Can I convert multiple PDF files to Excel at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can upload multiple PDFs in one session, and the tool will convert each file into its own Excel (.xlsx) output. Batch conversions may take longer depending on the number of files, page count, and table complexity.
