Excel to XML Without Uploading FAQ
- Does anything leave my device?

- Yes. Download creates a local .xml file from the generated text.
- Is processing private?
- Yes. Conversion runs locally in your browser and files are not uploaded to Looty Tools servers for this workflow.
- What file size limit applies?
- Inputs must be 25 MB or smaller unless a tool-specific limit says otherwise.
- Can I copy the result?
- Yes. After a successful conversion you can copy the output text or download the file.
