Screenshot to Excel

Turn a screenshot of a table into an editable Excel file. Upload a PNG, JPG, WebP, or GIF, check every cell, then copy or download.

A screenshot to Excel conversion starts from a picture of a grid, not from a workbook file. The picture might be Excel or Google Sheets, a dashboard, a PDF viewer, a chat message, or a web page. Image to Excel reads the rows and columns that are visible, lets you correct them, and gives you cells you can paste or an .xlsx file you can download.

When a screenshot is the right source

Use this page when the table already lives on a screen:

  • Someone sent a capture instead of the workbook.
  • The numbers sit in a dashboard that has no export.
  • A web page, email, or chat shows a grid but no download.
  • You cropped an invoice, statement, or report that you can only see as an image.

A phone photo of paper belongs on photo to Excel. A grid written in pen belongs on handwritten table to Excel. Any picture of a grid, including a screenshot, is also covered by table image to spreadsheet. The converter itself is on the Image to Excel homepage.

What you can upload

The converter accepts JPG, PNG, WebP, and GIF. Free allows 3 MB. Pro and Lifetime allow 30 MB. It does not open PDF, CSV, or an existing Excel file. If you can export the original workbook, do that. A screenshot is the path when the file itself is not available.

You can convert without an account. Sign in only when you want the image and the Excel file stored with your account: 24 hours on Free, 30 days on Pro, and 90 days on Lifetime.

Capture a grid that stays readable

  • Crop to the table. Keep a small margin, and leave out the desktop, browser, and side panels.
  • Make the text large enough to read. Zoom the sheet in before you capture a dense grid.
  • Include every column. A cut-off last column becomes a short row.
  • Prefer a sharp PNG when the type is small.
  • One table per image is easier to review. If several grids are visible, the result can contain more than one table.

Check the cells before you download

The reader keeps the original language, spelling, dates, and number formatting. It does not translate, calculate, or fill in anything that is not visible. A blank cell stays blank. A merged header is repeated as the most specific label on each column.

  1. Upload the screenshot in the converter.
  2. Compare the first result row with the header in the image.
  3. Scan amounts, dates, and any cell that wrapped onto two lines.
  4. Edit a cell, rename a column, or add and delete rows when the grid needs it.
  5. Copy the cells into another workbook, or download Excel.

A blurry or tiny capture is the usual reason a cell is wrong. Replace the image, or edit that cell in the result. Look at the grid before you treat the file as finished.
