How? PDF --> TSV --> CSV
We’ve shared a lot about how easy it is to use Snip to convert tables in PDFs into TSV format, but we know that many users require a CSV format for whatever project they are working on.
So we wanted to create a short tutorial showing how it’s just as easy it is to convert tables in PDFs into
.csv files–you can do it in under 30 seconds! It’s a huge productivity boost.Here’s a short video showing you how:
Steps:
-
Display the table that you want to convert on your computer screen.
-
Click the screenshot button on the app or enter the keyboard shortcut
ctrl+alt+m/ctrl+command+m -
Click and drag the crop box around the desired table.
-
Check your Snip result, then click the Copy TSV button.
-
Open up any spreadsheet software (we used Google Sheets in this example).
-
Paste the TSV that’s been copied to your clipboard into your spreadsheet.
-
Export the spreadsheet as a CSV file. You’re done!
