Bold claims but does not deliver
They claim "Perfect Accuracy and Format Retention” and “Preserve original text, tables, layout, rows, columns, and data structure exactl.” This app does not deliver on any of these claims. It did marginally better than another free convertor I just tried but it still failed miserably in recognizing a simple table and preserving its layout and format. Apparently cannot recognize a table with multi-line text within a cell even thought there is more than adequate space to delineate and recognize the table cell layout. Also failed to separate many number and date fields and lumped them into single cells with the text meant as a label for the number or dates. When converting to a spreadsheet format the main idea is to separate the data items into usable cells. Thus dates, numbers, amounts should almost always be converted into seperate cells. Doesn’t even recognize paranthetical numbers as negative values (common accounting format choice) and instead it simply throws away the parenthesis. I deleted this app as soon as I tried it out on a few simple paycheck stub pdfs.
