Watch for visual tables with hidden structure
Check blank cells, wrapped descriptions, footnotes, repeated page headers, and columns separated only by whitespace. These layouts can look simple while encoding ambiguous rows.

Questions about PDF Table Extractor
Can it extract tables without visible borders?
Often, yes. The model can use alignment, spacing, headings, and repeated value patterns to infer a table even when the PDF has no drawn grid lines.
What happens to tables that span several pages?
The extractor can join repeated table structures across pages. Review page headers and carried totals because they can be mistaken for data rows.
Can I edit a cell before export?
Yes. The review workspace lets you correct extracted cells while comparing them with the source PDF.
