How are columns detected?
The tool groups text on the same horizontal line into a row, splits cells where there are wide gaps, and then assigns cells to columns by their horizontal positions. Numbers with thousands separators are turned into real numeric values in the cell.
Limits of the conversion
Tables drawn with ruled lines, merged cells and tables that run across several pages may not transfer precisely and may need a small fix in Excel. Scanned files do not work because they need OCR. For Arabic files the columns are reversed automatically so they start from the right.
Frequently asked questions
Do numbers become calculable numbers?
Yes. Cells that contain plain numbers or numbers with thousands separators become numeric values.
Why are some columns merged or split?
The split depends on the gaps between texts. When gaps are small cells are merged, and you may need to split them by hand.
Does it work with scanned files?
No, they need OCR.
