How to convert Excel to PDF
- Choose your spreadsheet. Drag an .xlsx, .xls, .csv or .ods file into the box above.
- Set the page. Pick a paper size and orientation, and whether the first row is a header.
- Convert and download. Each sheet in your workbook becomes its own section of the PDF.
Why use PDFLad to convert Excel to PDF
Your file stays private
Most online converters upload your file to their server. PDFLad does the work in your browser, so nothing you convert Excel to PDF ever leaves your device.
Free, with no catches
No sign-up, no email address, no watermark and no limit on how many files you convert.
Real, searchable text
Tables are drawn as text, not images, so the PDF stays sharp and you can search and copy from it.
Frequently asked questions
Is Excel to PDF free?
Yes. It's free, with no account and no watermark.
Is my spreadsheet uploaded?
No. Your workbook is read and converted entirely in your browser.
Which files can I convert?
Excel .xlsx and .xls files, CSV files and OpenDocument .ods spreadsheets.
What happens to wide sheets?
With automatic orientation, sheets with more than six columns are set to landscape, and the text size shrinks for very wide sheets so everything fits.
Are charts and colours included?
No. The cell values are exported as clean tables, but charts, images and cell colours aren't included. Characters outside Western European alphabets may not display correctly yet.
