Will umlauts and accents show correctly in Excel?

Yes. The CSV is UTF-8 with a byte-order mark, which Excel uses to recognise UTF-8. Cells containing separators, quotes or line breaks are quoted.

Are numbers converted?

No. Cells are written exactly as they appear, so 1.250,00 stays 1.250,00. Use PDF to Excel for real numeric cells.

How are several tables named?

Each table gets its own file named after the PDF, the table number and the page, such as report-table2-p4.csv.
