Convert Excel to PDF
Turn a spreadsheet into a PDF you can send without the layout breaking.
How it works
- Drag and drop your Excel (.xlsx or .xls) files below.
- Reorder them if needed.
- Click Convert to download as a PDF file.
What this tool does to your file
The workbook’s contents are read and written to a PDF that can be shared and printed without shifting. It carries the values rather than the design: no fonts are embedded, and the sheet’s own column widths, fills and borders are not reproduced the way a print-to-PDF from Excel would reproduce them. Formulas are written as their last calculated result — a PDF has nowhere to put a formula, so what you see is the number the workbook was saved holding. Characters outside Latin-1 have no glyph in the standard font set and become question marks. Reads both .xlsx and legacy .xls, choosing the reader from the file’s own signature rather than its extension. Legacy .xls is capped at 25 MB whatever your tier — it is a 65,536-row format and was never a sensible target for a large sheet. Up to 20 files per job.
What happens to your files
- No account needed — Every tool works as a guest. Signing in raises the limits and keeps your files together, but nothing asks you to register before you get a result.
- It runs in your browser — There is nothing to install and nothing to keep up to date. Files travel to our servers over an encrypted connection, and come back the same way.
- Your files stay yours — Files and results stay in your account until you delete them. Files from a guest session that is never linked to an account are removed automatically after a period of inactivity.
- Size limits, stated up front — Up to 10 MB per file as a guest, and up to 25 MB signed in. You see the limit before you upload, not after.
