Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What Excel formats can I convert with this tool?

Our converter supports all major spreadsheet formats including Microsoft Excel formats (.XLSX, .XLS), Comma-Separated Values (.CSV), and OpenDocument Spreadsheets (.ODS). You can convert these to various output formats including PDF, JSON, HTML, TXT, YAML, and Base64 encoding.

Is there a file size limit for conversion?

Since the conversion happens entirely in your browser, the practical limit depends on your device's memory and processing power. Most modern computers can comfortably handle spreadsheets up to 20-30MB. For very large files, we recommend using our Compressor Tool first to reduce file size.

Can I convert password-protected Excel files?

Currently, our tool cannot process password-protected or encrypted Excel files. You'll need to remove the password protection using Excel before converting with our tool.

How accurate is the conversion between formats?

Our converter uses industry-standard libraries to ensure the highest accuracy possible. However, some complex formatting, formulas, or macros may not transfer perfectly between formats, especially when converting to non-spreadsheet formats like PDF or HTML. For best results with complex spreadsheets, we recommend verifying the output after conversion.

Are my files stored on your servers?

No. All file processing occurs directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security for your sensitive data.

Can I convert multiple Excel files at once?

Currently, our tool processes one file at a time. If you need to convert multiple files, you can use our tool repeatedly, or check out our Excel to PNG Converter to combine files before conversion.

Does the tool preserve formulas when converting between Excel formats?

When converting between XLSX, XLS, and ODS formats, formulas are generally preserved. However, when converting to non-spreadsheet formats like CSV, JSON, or PDF, formulas are converted to their current values rather than remaining as editable formulas.
