Tabula is a tool for liberating data tables trapped inside PDF files
Tabula helps researchers, analysts, and anyone dealing with data trapped in PDF documents to easily extract it. You upload a PDF file containing tables, select the data you need using a simple web interface, and it outputs the extracted information in a clean CSV format. This is ideal for professionals who regularly work with reports or datasets provided as PDF files and need to analyze that data.

Use this if you need to extract structured table data from text-based PDF documents into a usable format like CSV for analysis or import into other tools.
Not ideal if your PDF documents are scanned images rather than text-based, or if you primarily need to extract unstructured text rather than tables.
