Convert Excel to PDF

Turn spreadsheets into clean, printable PDF tables.

XLSXPDF

or drop them here

Processed on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

Convert Excel to PDF and get clean, printable tables from your spreadsheets. XLSX, older XLS, CSV and OpenDocument ODS files are all supported. Each sheet in the workbook becomes its own section of the PDF, so a multi-tab budget or report stays organized.

The PDF shows what the cells display: formulas appear as their calculated results, not as the formula text. The workbook is read by your browser on your device, so sales figures, payroll or client lists are never uploaded.

It’s free, without an account, a watermark or a usage limit, and works without Excel installed. You can convert several workbooks in one batch and get a separate PDF for each, which saves time at month end when reports from different teams all need to go out as PDFs.

How to use Excel to PDF

  1. Add your spreadsheets

    Drop XLSX, XLS, CSV or ODS files onto the page, or choose them from your device.

  2. Set the page layout

    Choose A4 or US Letter, and set Orientation to Automatic, Portrait or Landscape.

  3. Decide on gridlines

    Keep Show gridlines ticked for a classic table look, or untick it for a cleaner page.

  4. Click Convert to PDF

    Press Convert to PDF and download one PDF for each spreadsheet.

Fitting wide spreadsheets on a page

Wide sheets are the main headache when printing Excel files. Choosing Landscape gives each page more room for columns. Automatic lets the converter decide based on the shape of each sheet.

When a sheet has more columns than fit even in landscape, the converter splits it across pages instead of shrinking the text until it’s unreadable. If you want everything on one page, consider hiding or deleting unneeded columns in your spreadsheet before converting.

How to convert Excel to PDF without Excel

You don’t need Microsoft Office. Open this page in any modern browser, on a Chromebook, a Mac, a Linux machine or a phone, and drop in the file. CSV exports from banking apps, accounting software or online stores convert just as easily.

If you do have Excel and need print areas, headers or exact column widths preserved, its own File > Save As > PDF option respects those page setup settings. This tool focuses on presenting your data as clear tables.

What appears in the PDF

The PDF lists cell values in tables, one section per sheet. Results of formulas are shown as numbers or text. Charts, macros, comments and conditional formatting colors are not part of the output, so keep the original workbook for those.

Gridlines make long rows of numbers easier to follow on paper, so keep them on for financial tables. Turn them off for short lists, such as a guest list or price sheet, where a lighter look reads better.

Questions people ask

Yes. Convert as many spreadsheets as you like for free, with no sign-up and no watermark.

Is my spreadsheet uploaded?

No. The workbook is converted in your browser and never leaves your device.

Can I convert all sheets in a workbook?

Will formulas show in the PDF?

No. The PDF shows the result of each formula, just like the cell displays it in Excel.

Does it work with Google Sheets?

Yes. In Google Sheets, choose File > Download and pick Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) or CSV, then convert that file here.
