How to convert  PDF to an Excel file

In this tutorial we will learn how to convert a PDF file into an Excel file. PDF to Excel conversion refers to the process of extracting data from a PDF file and converting it into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. This allows users to edit, sort, and analyze the data in Excel, rather than being limited to simply viewing the information in a PDF format. The conversion process can be done through a variety of methods, including online OCR services, desktop OCR software, and built-in OCR features in Microsoft Office. The accuracy of the conversion will depend on the quality of the original PDF file, as well as the OCR technology being used. The resulting Excel file will contain the extracted data in a grid-like format, allowing users to perform various data analysis tasks, such as sorting, filtering, and creating charts and graphs.
