XLSX to PDF Online — Tables, Charts & Worksheets

Extension wars are unhelpful: a 2008 .xls dump and a current .xlsx model should not need two products. Both ride LibreOffice on Hetzner. Charts are real objects when the workbook stored them that way — not a fuzzy screenshot of your monitor.

One engine for new workbooks and leftover .xls

Accounting archives still ship BIFF .xls. New teams live in Open XML .xlsx. This spoke is the format-agnostic landing: same orientation toggle, same deletion policy. Pivot caches and charts depend on what LibreOffice can reconstruct; a sample convert is cheaper than a board surprise.

.xls is not “unsupported” here

Legacy files convert on the same worker. You do not have to re-save as xlsx first unless the file is corrupt or passworded.

Charts and pivots

Embedded charts generally survive as print objects. Pivot tables print in their last cached layout — refresh in Excel if the cache is stale. Slicers and some newer Excel visuals may differ.

Single worksheet vs whole book

This pipeline still paginates included sheets. To emit only one tab, hide the others or copy that sheet to a new file before upload.

How it works

  1. 1

    Upload .xlsx or .xls

    Same private VPS path. CSV is also accepted on the hub tool.

  2. 2

    Orient for tables and pivots

    Landscape for wide pivots. LibreOffice draws charts from the file, not from a screen grab.

  3. 3

    Download the PDF

    Source deleted. Everyday worksheets free; huge models Premium.

Use cases

Old accounting exports

Turn leftover .xls into PDFs without a ritual upgrade of every file.

Chart-heavy dashboards

Share graphs that remain vectors where LibreOffice supports them.

Pivot summaries

Board one-pagers from a pivot that already looks right on screen.

Investor model snapshot

A PDF of the worksheet they can open on a tablet, not the live model.

Problems we solve

Tools that reject .xls

We take both extensions on one pipeline.

Charts as broken bitmaps

HTML hacks fail on graphs. LibreOffice is the print engine for a reason.

Misaligned grids

Print layout from Gotenberg, not a CSS table dump.

Trust & privacy

XLS and XLSX

Backward compatible path for archives and current files.

Chart and pivot print

Not a degraded raster of your laptop screen.

Private deletion

Financial models processed and removed — no CloudConvert exposure.
