Practical workflows

Turn a supplier quote screenshot into a comparison sheet

Crop the screenshot to the table and convert it to Excel. Check product names, units, quantities and prices against the image. Then align equivalent items from each supplier in Excel and add your own comparison formulas.

Digitize a photographed grade sheet

Photograph the full table clearly, upload the image and select Excel. Check each name against its scores, including empty cells. After correction, sort or calculate averages in your spreadsheet software.

Verify row alignment, decimal points, dates and totals before calculation. Formulas are not guaranteed to be recovered or generated. Sorting, comparison and charting happen in your spreadsheet software; conversion does not perform accounting or supplier selection.

How to Convert an Image to Excel in 3 Steps

  1. 1

    Upload the image

    A phone photo, a screenshot or a scan all work. For photos, shoot the table straight on in even light so no row falls into shadow.

  2. 2

    Let DocCrisp rebuild the table

    Grid lines, rows and columns are detected, and each value is placed in its own cell in the same position as in the image.

  3. 3

    Download the .xlsx

    Open it in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers, then sort, filter and add formulas. No sign-up, no watermark.

Numbers, Dates and Merged Cells

Conversion provides editable table content. Check the extracted values and their cell formats before using formulas.

Values are copied as printed

Review amounts, currency symbols, percentages and decimal points against the image before calculating. Unclear characters can be recognized incorrectly.

Dates are not reinterpreted

03/04/2026 stays 03/04/2026. DocCrisp never swaps day and month to fit a locale, so a European date can't silently turn into an American one.

Ready for SUM in one step

If Excel flags a column as numbers stored as text, select it and choose Convert to Number. Remove currency symbols first with Find & Replace if you want plain numeric cells.

Check merged headers first

Headers that span several columns are the hardest part of any table image. Glance over them in the downloaded file before you add formulas that depend on them.

What Kind of Table Images Work

Photos of printed tables

Price quotes, invoices, shift rosters and order forms photographed with a phone. Keep the whole table in frame and the paper flat.

Screenshots

Tables on web pages, in PDFs or inside apps that won't let you copy the data out. Screenshots are sharp, so they give the cleanest results.

Scanned documents

Pages from a scanner or a scanning app. A straight, high-contrast scan at 300 dpi or more reads best.

Handwritten tables

Neatly written digits in clear columns can be read. Joined-up or cramped handwriting is often misread, so check every handwritten figure in the file.

Why Not Just Retype the Table

Typing a 40-row bill of materials into a spreadsheet by hand takes about 15 minutes, and the classic mistake isn't a wrong digit: it's a skipped line that shifts every value below it into the wrong row.

Bank statements, lab results, inventory counts and supplier price lists still arrive as paper or photos, yet they have to end up in a system. Retype one and there's usually an error somewhere. Converting the image keeps every value in the row it came from, so you only check the result instead of producing it.
