🟢convert_pdf_tables(file, pages, merge_tables, column_types)
Use this when the user wants to convert a PDF to Excel, convert PDF to Excel, extract a table from a PDF, convert PDF table to Excel, PDF to CSV, PDF to XLSX, get a bank statement PDF to Excel, or turn a PDF to spreadsheet. It reads the tables in a text-based PDF and returns an Excel workbook (one sheet per table) and a ZIP of CSV files, with column types and a preview of the first rows. Handles up to 15 MB and 50 pages. Does not read scanned or image-only pages (no OCR), does not edit the PDF, and keeps files for about 1 hour. Do not use for a PDF that is only a form to fill or for reading a PDF as plain text.

}🟢list_pdf_tables(file, pages, merge_tables)
Use this when the user wants to extract table from pdf, copy table from pdf, or inspect pdf to spreadsheet tables, before exporting: it shows each table's size, column types and first rows with no download. Does not make Excel or CSV files (use convert_pdf_tables for that), does not read scanned pages (no OCR), and handles up to 15 MB and 50 pages. Do not use for editing a PDF or for a PDF that is not a table.
