SheetMate › PDF to Excel
PDF to Excel for invoices, receipts, bank statements and forms
Copying from a PDF into Excel rarely works. Columns break, lines run together and numbers land in the wrong cells. SheetMate is built for business PDFs. You tell it what kind of document it is (or let it detect that), and it fills in a table with the right columns. Then you check it and download Excel, CSV or a PDF report.
Free trial: 10 pages, no credit card. Your files are not saved on our server. Always check the table before you use it.
How it works
- Create a free account and get 10 free pages.
- Add your PDFs. You can add up to 20 at once, each up to 10 MB.
- Choose the document type, or "Detect automatically".
- Press Read my documents and check the amber rows.
- Download Excel or CSV, or a file for Xero, QuickBooks, AutoCount or SQL Account.
Which PDFs it is made for
| PDF type | Columns you get | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Invoice | Supplier, invoice no., dates, tax, total, line items | Duplicates and totals are checked |
| Receipt | Shop, receipt no., date, tax, total | A PDF of many receipts can be read page by page |
| Bank statement | Date, description, money in, money out, balance | Text PDFs are read by our own program, free and instant |
| CV | Name, contact, job, education, skills | One row for each person |
| Any form | The columns you name | Use "My own columns" |
One PDF page uses one page of your allowance. Bank statements in text PDF form do not use pages.
What it is not
SheetMate is not a tool that copies any table out of any PDF. It is made for business documents with a known layout, and it fills in a table that you review. For one-off reports with big tables, a general PDF converter may suit you better.
Special cases
- Password-protected PDFs: SheetMate asks for the password.
- Scanned PDFs: read like photos, one page at a time.
- One PDF with many documents: tick "This PDF holds many documents" and each page is read as its own document, up to 50 pages.
For Malaysian businesses
Day-first dates, RM amounts, supplier tax IDs and tax lines such as SST are read from Malaysian invoices and receipts, and bank statements with DuitNow, FPX and IBG wording are laid out in columns. Malay and English documents both use the Latin alphabet, so they usually read well.
For other countries
Any currency is read as a three letter code, and the site works from any country. English works best, and other Latin-alphabet languages usually work. For bank statements, the reader expects dates written day first, so check the dates if your bank writes the month first.
