# ODS to PDF
|
||||
|
||||
Convert OpenDocument Spreadsheet files into PDF. ODS is the native format for LibreOffice Calc and a common export from Google Sheets. This tool renders your spreadsheet data, formatting, and charts into a paginated PDF you can print or share.
|
||||
|
||||
## Supported Formats
|
||||
|
||||
| Format | Extension | Notes |
|
||||
| :----------------------- | :-------- | :-------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| OpenDocument Spreadsheet | `.ods` | LibreOffice Calc / Google Sheets export |
|
||||
|
||||
## How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
1. Click the upload area or drag and drop your ODS files. Multiple files are supported.
|
||||
2. Review the file list. Use the trash icon to remove files, or click **Add More Files** to expand the batch.
|
||||
3. Click **Convert to PDF**. The LibreOffice-based engine loads in the browser and renders each spreadsheet into PDF pages.
|
||||
4. A single spreadsheet downloads as a PDF. Multiple files are packaged into `ods-to-pdf.zip`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Options
|
||||
|
||||
No configuration is required. The converter applies the spreadsheet's existing print layout, cell formatting, and column widths to the PDF output.
|
||||
|
||||
## Use Cases
|
||||
|
||||
- Sharing a LibreOffice Calc budget or report with someone who only accepts PDFs
|
||||
- Printing a Google Sheets export that was downloaded as ODS
|
||||
- Archiving financial records in a non-editable format
|
||||
- Submitting ODS-based forms or timesheets as fixed-layout documents
|
||||
|
||||
## Tips
|
||||
|
||||
- If your spreadsheet has multiple sheets, all sheets are included in the PDF output.
|
||||
- Very wide spreadsheets may span multiple PDF pages horizontally. Consider adjusting column widths in the source file before converting if the layout matters.
|
||||
- The LibreOffice engine initializes on first use. Subsequent conversions in the same session are faster.
