What actually changes
PDF and XLSX are not the same picture in two wrappers.
Table structure is detected from the positions of the text and ruling lines, and each cell is written into a worksheet cell. Numbers arrive as numbers, so they can be summed rather than concatenated.
Worth knowing first
PDF has no concept of a table. The grid is inferred from whitespace and lines, so tables without ruling lines, with merged cells, or with values wrapping onto two lines are where the detection breaks. Always check the totals against the PDF before using the data.
Questions
PDF to XLSX, answered
Why do some numbers come through as text?
Currency symbols, thousands separators and trailing minus signs stop Excel recognising a numeric value. A find and replace usually fixes a whole column at once.
Does it work on a scanned statement?
Only via OCR, and accuracy on dense numeric tables is the worst case for OCR. Verify every figure.
Are multi-page tables joined?
Each page is processed separately, so repeated column headers appear mid-sheet and need deleting.
