How to: Extract Data from PDF
- Select one PDF, Word or text file.
- Wait while every page is scanned for facts.
- Review the list and download it as CSV for Excel.
Copying invoice totals, contract dates or contact details out of PDFs by hand is slow and error-prone. FreePDF scans every page with pattern recognition and lists every fact it finds, grouped by type and linked to its page, ready to paste into a spreadsheet. Everything runs locally, so even financial and personal data stays private.
Common uses
- List all deadlines and dates in a contract or tender.
- Collect amounts and totals from invoices and statements.
- Build a contact list from a brochure or directory PDF.
- Find every link and email in a report before publishing.
Tips for best results
- Scanned documents need OCR – tick the OCR option.
- Sort the CSV by type in Excel to review dates or amounts together.
- For full tables, use PDF to Excel instead.
