ByteScout PDF Multitool is a Windows utility for getting data out of PDF documents. It is aimed at office users, analysts and developers who receive reports, invoices or statements as PDF files and need the text or tables in an editable form. A document is opened in the program, and its content can be exported to CSV, Excel, JSON, XML, HTML or plain text.

Pulls tables and text out of PDF files into spreadsheet-ready formats without retyping.

The program detects tables on a page and keeps their rows and columns when exporting, and an OCR option handles scanned documents that contain only images of text. Besides extraction it offers everyday page tools such as splitting and merging files and rendering pages as images, and it can generate sample code that repeats an operation with ByteScout's developer libraries.
