How to convert a pay stub PDF

Download the stub from your payroll portal as a PDF, then drag it into the box above. StubCSV reads the text inside the PDF, rebuilds the earnings, taxes, and deductions tables, and shows you a preview. Check it, then download the CSV.

If the portal only shows the stub on screen, use your browser's Print dialog and choose Save as PDF. That produces a text PDF that converts cleanly. Scans and phone photos don't contain text yet, so we'll ask you for a text PDF instead of guessing at the numbers.

What the CSV looks like

The detailed CSV has one row per line on your stub with these columns: employer, employee, pay date, period start, period end, category, description, rate, hours, current, and YTD. Summary rows for gross pay, total taxes, total deductions, and net pay are included at the bottom.

Prefer one row per paycheck? The one-row summary CSV puts every field and line item in a single row, perfect for appending to a running income log.

Private by design

Pay stubs include your pay, your employer, and often part of your SSN. StubCSV processes the file in memory and discards it when the response is sent. Nothing is saved, and the CSV itself is generated in your browser.

How it works

Pay stub PDF to CSV in three steps

  1. Step 1

    Get a text PDF

    Download your pay stub from your payroll or tax portal. If it came as a photo or scan, open it there and use Print → Save as PDF.

  2. Step 2

    Drop it in

    We read the PDF's text layer in memory, find each field, and cross-check the math so you can trust the result.

  3. Step 3

    Download the CSV

    Preview every line, then download a tidy CSV that opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers.

Your payroll PDF never touches a disk.

Pay stubs and tax forms are some of the most sensitive documents you own. StubCSV is built so we couldn't hand them over even if someone asked: we simply don't keep them.

Read the privacy policy
  • Processed in memory

    Your PDF is read into server memory, parsed, and discarded the moment the response is sent.

  • Nothing is stored

    No disk writes, no database, no file storage bucket. There is nothing to leak later.

  • SSNs masked

    Social Security numbers and recipient TINs come back as ***-**-1234. We never send the full number back.

  • No content logging

    We don't log file contents or extracted values. The CSV is generated in your browser.
