How to convert XLS to ODS, step by step

  1. Select your XLS file

    Click the upload area or drag your XLS file straight onto it. You can drop several at once if you need to convert them all.

  2. Check the target is ODS

    The output format is already set to ODS. If you added several files and want a different format for each, switch to the "A format for each file" option.

  3. Press Convert

    Conversion runs on your own device, so it starts instantly and never depends on your internet speed or on a queue at some server.

  4. Download the result

    Hit Download and save your new ODS file. If you converted several, you can grab them all together in a ZIP.

Why convert XLS to ODS?
