How to turn a table photo into Excel
Image to Excel reads a photo of a table with OCR and writes an .xlsx, in your browser. One sheet per picture. The images stay on your device. Free. No account needed.
- Add images
Drop one or more JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC pictures, or paste one with Ctrl+V. The order they appear is the order of the sheets.
- Choose the language
Vietnamese + English by default. Pick another language under Text in the images when the table is not in those two.
- Convert
Nothing to press: each picture is read as soon as you add it, and the progress shows beside it. Change the language and they are read again.
- Download
Press Download to save one .xlsx: one sheet per picture, in the order shown. Check the preview before you use the numbers: scroll it sideways to see every column, and a dotted cell was filled from the other rows of its group.
Frequently asked questions
Not answered here? Ask Yangopen
Are my images uploaded?
No. Each image is read in your browser, on your own device. Only the first run downloads the open-source OCR engine and the language data you picked from jsDelivr; your image is not sent to it.
Can it read a photo of a table?
Yes, if the words are clear and the photo is straight. A flat scan or a straight screenshot reads best. Handwriting, a tilted page and very small text are read less well. Check the preview.
Are merged cells and wrapped cells kept?
A cell that spans columns goes in the first column it touches. A cell that wraps onto two lines becomes two rows. In a table with ruled lines, the lines down the columns mark them, so cells that nearly touch stay apart. A table with neither lines nor a gap between its columns may be read as one column.
Which languages can it read?
Vietnamese, English, Tibetan, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Thai, Khmer, Lao, Burmese, Hindi, Sanskrit, Russian, French, German and Spanish. Pick the language under Text in the images; the tool does not find it for you.
How many images can I add?
Up to 30 images at a time, each up to 30 MB, and one .xlsx comes out. A HEIC photo is read with the site's HEIC reader first, so it opens in Chrome, Edge and Firefox as well as Safari.
Does it read handwriting?
No. OCR reads printed text and clear scans; handwriting is not supported.
Is it free? Is there a limit?
It is free, with no account and no daily limit, because your own device does the work. OCR takes a few seconds an image, and the first run is slower while the engine downloads.
