Detailed Instructions

PDF → XLSX workflow

To convert a PDF file to XLSX, follow these steps:

  1. Initialise the converter: Create an instance of PdfConverter.
  2. Configure options: Use PdfSaveOptions to specify how tables, images and text layers should be interpreted.
  3. Define file paths: Provide the source PDF path and the target XLSX file location.
  4. Execute conversion: Call Process with the prepared load and save options.

Example – PDF to XLSX with table extraction

using Sheetize;

var loadOptions = new LoadOptions
{
    InputFile = @"D:\Input.pdf"
};

var saveOptions = new PdfToXlsxOptions
{
    OutputFile = @"D:\Output.xlsx"
};

PdfConverter.Process(loadOptions, saveOptions);

XLSX → PDF workflow (reverse direction)

If you also need to go back from XLSX to PDF, the steps are analogous:

  1. Initialise the converter: Instantiate PdfConverter.
  2. Set PDF parameters: Apply PdfSaveOptions to define page size, orientation and whether to embed fonts.
  3. Specify locations: Indicate the input XLSX file and the desired PDF output path.
  4. Run the conversion: Invoke Process with the configured options.

Example – XLSX to PDF

var loadOptions = new LoadOptions
{
    InputFile = @"D:\Input.xlsx"
};

var saveOptions = new PdfSaveOptions
{
    OutputFile = @"D:\Report.pdf"
};

PdfConverter.Process(loadOptions, saveOptions);

These workflows enable automated data pipelines, bulk document processing and seamless integration of PDF data into Excel‑based analytics.
