Free Online Images to Excel Converter
Turn a photo, scan or screenshot of a table into an Excel workbook. The text is read with text recognition (OCR) right on your device, the table keeps its rows and columns, and amounts become real numbers. Nothing is uploaded.
How to use Images to Excel
- Open Images to Excel and choose your picture, or several pictures at once (JPG, PNG or WebP).
- Choose Printed or Handwritten, and check the language of the text (English, Bengali or Hindi; handwriting in English).
- Press Convert to Excel and wait a few seconds while the text is read.
- Download the .xlsx workbook and check it before you use it.
Features
Rows and columns are found from the lines of the table, or from how the text lines up when there are no lines.
Amounts, quantities and percentages become numbers you can add up, sort and use in formulas.
A tilted or unevenly lit photo is straightened and evened out before it is read; small screenshots are enlarged.
Choose many pictures at once: one sheet per picture, or all on one sheet.
Choose Handwritten for tables and notes written by hand. Numbers, dates and neat block letters are read best.
Printed text is read in all three languages; handwriting in English.
Your pictures are read inside your browser and never uploaded.
When to use it
Tables often reach you as pictures: a photo of a printed price list, a screenshot of a report, a scanned bill or a picture sent on a chat app. Typing them into Excel by hand takes long and invites mistakes. Images to Excel reads the picture for you and lays the text out in cells like the picture, so you only check it and start working with the numbers. It suits invoices, receipts, statements, timetables, mark sheets and price lists.
Frequently asked questions
How accurate is it?
On clear pictures nearly every cell is read correctly, but text recognition can still mistake a character, especially in small, blurred or handwritten text. Always check the workbook before you rely on it, above all the amounts.
How do I get the best result?
Take the photo straight from above in good light, let the table fill most of the picture and keep it sharp. A screenshot is better than a photo of a screen.
Which pictures can I use?
JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and BMP pictures. On an iPhone, photos are handed over as JPG automatically.
Can it read handwriting?
Yes: choose Handwritten before you convert. Handwritten numbers, dates and neat block letters are read well; joined-up (cursive) writing is harder and needs more checking. Handwriting is read in English. The handwriting reader (about 23 MB) is downloaded the first time and then kept by your browser.
Can I convert several pictures at once?
Yes. Choose them together; each becomes a sheet, or all go on one sheet if you choose that.
Are my pictures uploaded?
No. They are read inside your browser, on your own device.
Is it free?
Yes. There is no account, no limit and no watermark.
