Question 1

What types of PDF files can this tool convert to CSV?

Accepted Answer

This tool works best with PDFs that contain clear, structured tables, such as invoices, financial reports, statements, and exported system reports. If the PDF has multiple tables, it will attempt to detect and convert each table into CSV-formatted rows and columns.

Question 2

Is there a file size limit for the PDF uploads?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The maximum supported upload size is 20MB per PDF file. If your PDF is larger, consider splitting it into smaller files and converting them separately.

Question 3

Does the tool support scanned PDFs or only digitally-created ones?

Accepted Answer

Digitally-created PDFs with selectable text and well-defined table structure typically convert more accurately. Scanned PDFs are image-based, so table extraction may be limited unless the file includes readable text via OCR, and results can vary depending on scan quality.

Question 4

Will the formatting of my tables be preserved in the CSV output?

Accepted Answer

CSV preserves the table structure as rows and columns, but it does not keep visual styling such as fonts, colors, merged cells, or precise spacing. The converter focuses on extracting cell values and aligning them into a spreadsheet-friendly format.

Question 5

Is my uploaded PDF file stored or deleted after conversion?

Accepted Answer

The tool processes your PDF to generate the CSV output, then deletes the uploaded file after conversion. If conversion fails or no tables are detected, the file is still removed after processing completes.
