How to convert Excel to PDF
To convert Excel to PDF, open the Excel to PDF tool and add your .xlsx file — PDFER renders each sheet to PDF pages in your browser, with nothing uploaded.
What carries over
Cell values and the table grid are rendered to the page. Very wide sheets are scaled or paginated to fit; complex formatting and formulas are simplified to their displayed values.
Going the other way
Need to pull tabular data out of a PDF back into a spreadsheet? Use PDF to Excel.

Frequently asked
- Is my spreadsheet uploaded?
- No. The conversion runs in your browser, so the file's data never leaves your device.
- Will formulas be preserved?
- A PDF is a fixed document, so formulas are rendered as their displayed values rather than kept as live formulas.
