I will extract data from PDF to excel or csv using python
Python Web Scraping Automation Developer
About this Gig
Stuck copying data out of PDFs by hand? I'll extract it with Python into a clean Excel or CSV file, ready to filter and analyse.
What I can extract:
- Tables from reports, invoices, bank statements and price lists, even when they span several pages
- Fillable forms: every field, checkbox and dropdown, one row per form
- Text from scanned documents with OCR (Tesseract), with low-confidence values checked by hand
- Text-only output (.txt) in the correct reading order, if that's what you need
How I work:
- Send me 1-2 sample files before ordering and I'll confirm it's doable
- After you order, you'll get the first pages back for approval before I process the full batch
- Numbers and dates are stored as real numbers and dates, not text
- I check row counts and totals against the source, so nothing goes missing
Stack: Python, pdfplumber, PyMuPDF, pypdf, Tesseract OCR, pandas, openpyxl.
In Standard and Premium you also get the script, so next month's files take one click.
Handwritten documents are not something I can do reliably, so please message me first if yours are handwritten.

FAQ
Can you extract data from scanned PDFs?
Yes, with OCR. Accuracy depends on scan quality, so send me a sample first and I'll tell you what to expect.
My PDFs have different layouts. Is that a problem?
No. Each layout gets its own parsing rules. The package says how many layouts are included, and extra layouts can be added.
Is my data kept private?
Yes. Your files are used only for your order and deleted after delivery.
