Converting Pdf To excel

Let's say you have a pdf full of numbers like my bursa EOD data. You need it to be in excel format so you can do calculations and statistic reports and etc. So what should you do? Copy everything from pdf into excel by either copy and paste or typing manually again? Hmmmm.......Takes a lot of time does it? No worries I found a way to do just that without downloading any software. If you wanna use software by all means go ahead but some illegal ones has virus or malware or NOTI NOTI bad bad stuff that makes your computers go haywire and some legal ones you will need to pay for its full capabilities. I found one which allows me to convert my long pdf files to excel via online. I have searched and tried a few of those online conversions. Some need you to enter your email address for them to convert and tells you that they will need 24 hours to convert. YIKES....some just convert half of the page and ask you to pay their monthly subscription fees. Cheap skate or poor people like me :( can't pay so I found a free online converter which is amazing.

Online PDF to Excel Converter

It allows you to drop and drag your PDF file and then it will convert it and allows you to download the converted excel file. Simple and it is done fast. No need to click convert and go get a cup of coffee while waiting. However, the website only allows you to convert 2 PDF files and then ask you to wait for one hour before converting another two......But no worries I found a way to go around it...So let me guide you on how to use the website and how to go around the 1 hour waiting time....

This is how the website look like.

There are 2 ways to insert your PDF files into the converter. You can either :-

1. Open your window explorer and drag your PDF file into the area shown by the arrow in the picture shown or
2. Click the image "Drop PDF here" and a window will pop up for you to choose your file.

This is the PDF file I wish to convert.

Once you choose your file, it will upload it into their server and then convert it. You just need to wait for less than a minute.

Once done you will see a download file button.  Click this and it will download the excel file for you. Simple as that.

See how the converted excel file looks like. Beautiful huh? It divides your PDF pages into sheets in excel.

Now, after you converted two files it will give you a message saying that you will have to wait for one hour before you can start converting again. WAIT????

Don't worry my impatient friends, let me teach you how to go around it.  We will clear our browser's cookies. For those who does not want to clear cookies, then you will need to wait for one hour.

I am using Google Chrome browser so my steps are different from other browsers.

Step 1 : Go to Settings.

Step 2: Scroll down and Click on "Show Advanced Settings" and more settings will appear

Step 3: Scroll down till you find "Privacy" setting and you will see a "Clear Browsing Data..." button. Click the button.

Step 4: You will see a few options there for you to choose, make sure the option "Cookies and other site and plugin data" is selected and then click "Clear Browsing Data" button.

Once you have done that, the converter website will automatically it refresh itself allowing you to convert again. Ta DA...... :)
