How to use this tool

  1. Choose your spreadsheet. Drop an .xls, .xlsx or .csv file onto the box, or click it to open your file picker. The limit is 10 MB.
  2. Convert to PDF. Click the button and the file is uploaded once to our conversion API, where LibreOffice renders the workbook.
  3. Let every sheet render. All sheets in the workbook are included; each one begins on a new page in the PDF.
  4. Review the sizes. The result panel shows the original spreadsheet size and the size of the generated PDF.
  5. Download. Save the PDF with the Download button. Nothing is downloaded automatically, so you can convert again first if needed.

Why use this tool

A spreadsheet is built for editing, not for sharing. Column widths, gridlines, scrollbars and hidden helper columns all change how it looks on another screen. A PDF fixes the layout at the moment you convert it, which makes it suitable for invoices, quotations, timesheets and reports that need to look the same for every reader.

The converter works through the entire workbook rather than just the active tab, so a report with a summary sheet and monthly detail sheets stays in one file. It also means you do not need Excel, LibreOffice or a spreadsheet app on the device you are using. Your upload exists only for the length of the conversion and is deleted within 15 minutes, and it is never shared or used to train anything.

Frequently asked questions

Are all of my spreadsheet sheets included in the PDF?
Yes. The converter processes the whole workbook, so every sheet is included in the PDF in the order it appears in the file. Each sheet starts on a new page.
Will formulas and charts appear in the PDF?
The PDF shows the values and charts that the converter can read from the saved workbook. Formulas are not recalculated for you, and macros are never run. Save the workbook in Excel first if you need freshly calculated values.
Which file types can I upload?
You can upload .xls, .xlsx and .csv files up to 10 MB. Password-protected workbooks cannot be opened, so remove the password and save a normal copy before converting.
Why does a wide sheet split across several pages?
A PDF page has a fixed width, so columns that do not fit are moved to the next page. Set a print area, choose fit-to-width scaling or reduce column widths in the spreadsheet before converting if you need one tidy page.
Is my spreadsheet uploaded and stored?
It is uploaded over HTTPS, converted on our server and returned to your browser. The upload and the finished PDF are deleted immediately after the response and within 15 minutes at the latest.
