## Three Steps to a Presentation-Ready PDF

Convert Excel to PDF in three steps, no Microsoft Excel, no software to install.

1. **Upload your Spreadsheet**: Drag and drop your .xlsx, .xls or .csv file up to 100MB free, 1GB on Pro and 5GB on Premium.
2. **Convert Your File**: Your sheets are rendered to PDF with formatting, charts and cell styling preserved.
3. **Download the Result**: Your new, print-ready PDF is ready to download immediately and auto-deleted after 15 min.

## Share Spreadsheets as PDF

Create a PDF copy of a spreadsheet for review, printing, or sharing with someone who does not use Excel.

- **Lock Formulas & Data**: Convert your spreadsheets to PDF so clients can view the final numbers without altering your complex background formulas.
- **Fix Printing Nightmares**: Create a PDF copy of a spreadsheet for printing. Review the page breaks, column widths, and scaling before sharing or making copies.
- **Send Professional Invoices**: Turn raw, editable Excel invoice templates into polished, secure PDFs that look incredibly professional when emailed to your clients.
- **Share Financial Reports**: Present quarterly earnings, budgets, or complex balance sheets to stakeholders in a clean format that opens on any device.
- **Preserve Custom Charts**: Ensure your carefully designed graphs, pivot tables, and conditional cell formatting look the same to everyone who opens the file.
- **Format Raw CSV Data**: Transform messy, comma-separated data exports from your CRM into a clean, readable grid format suited for reading and archiving.

## What converts and what changes

FynePDF renders your workbook exactly as it would print, scaling wide sheets so columns stay together rather than breaking across pages. Everything visible in the spreadsheet carries over; everything that only exists while editing does not.

- **Comes through exactly**: Cell values, formatting, borders, colours, conditional formatting, and charts all render as they appear.
- **Formulas become values**: A cell showing £4,200 stays £4,200, but the formula behind it doesn't travel, that's what makes the doc safe to share.
- **Edited content is dropped**: Comments, hidden rows and columns, filters and macros don't appear. Hidden sheets aren't included.

## Frequently asked questions

### How accurate is the table and formatting preservation when converting to PDF?

FynePDF renders your spreadsheet as it would print, cell values, borders, fonts, colours, conditional formatting and charts all carry across. Formulas are converted to the values they display, so recipients see £4,200 rather than the calculation behind it. Complex merged cells and very wide sheets occasionally need a look before sending, but standard workbooks convert cleanly. Files from Excel, Google Sheets and Numbers are all supported as .xlsx.

### Can I convert specific sheets or just the entire workbook?

All sheets in the workbook are converted, in order. To produce a PDF of just one sheet, save a copy of the workbook containing only that sheet before uploading, or convert everything and use Extract PDF Pages to keep the pages you need. Free accounts convert files up to 100MB.

### Is the Excel to PDF tool free to use online?

Yes, FynePDF's Excel to PDF tool is free with no sign-up required. Free accounts can convert files up to 100MB, with up to 10 tasks and 600MB of processing a day. Professional at $7/month raises this to 1GB, and Premium to 5GB.

### Is it safe to use Excel to PDF on FynePDF? Are my files secure?

File transfers use TLS encryption. Cloud-processed files are automatically deleted within 15 minutes after processing completes, unless you choose to save them to your Library. Documents are not used to train AI models. Read the Privacy Policy for storage and processing details.

### Can I use the Excel to PDF tool on Mac, Windows, or mobile?

Yes. FynePDF works directly from your browser, so it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android with no installation including devices without Microsoft Office. Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge are all supported.

### Why do my columns split across multiple pages?

That's Excel's default behaviour, not a conversion problem, Excel prints at 100% scale and breaks wherever the page ends, which is why a wide sheet becomes several pages across. FynePDF scales sheets to fit the page width so columns stay together.

### How do I convert Excel to PDF without Microsoft Excel?

Upload the .xlsx, .xls or .csv to FynePDF and download the PDF, no Office licence, no installation, no account. This is the usual case when someone emails a spreadsheet and you don't have Excel: you get a PDF that opens on any device, including phones and Chromebooks. Files exported from Google Sheets and Numbers work the same way.

### Do formulas still work in the converted PDF?

No, and that's usually the point. Formulas are calculated once and their results are written into the PDF as fixed values, so a cell showing a total displays that total but not the calculation behind it. This is why finance and accounting teams send PDFs,  recipients see the numbers without being able to alter or inspect the underlying model. Keep your original workbook if you need the formulas.

### Can I convert a CSV file to PDF?

Yes. Upload a .csv and FynePDF renders it as a formatted table rather than raw comma-separated text. This is the quickest way to turn a database or CRM export into something readable, the columns line up, the data is legible, and it prints cleanly.
