Convert ODS to PDF in your browser

Turn an OpenDocument Spreadsheet (.ods) — produced by LibreOffice Calc, OpenOffice, or Google Sheets — into a readable, paginated PDF table. Everything runs locally so your spreadsheet stays on your device.

How to convert ODS to PDF

  1. Choose or drop an .ods file.
  2. Select the worksheets to include.
  3. Pick a page size, orientation, and fit-to-width option.
  4. Convert to PDF.
  5. Download the resulting PDF.

What gets preserved

  • Text, numbers, dates, percentages, and currency values, using each cell's displayed formatting.
  • Blank cells.
  • Merged cells.
  • Multiple worksheets, each with its own page(s) and a sheet-name header.
  • Formula results, using the cached/displayed value from the file (formulas are not recalculated).

Pagination

  • Auto orientation switches to landscape for wide sheets.
  • "Fit worksheet width to page" scales wide tables down instead of continuing them onto extra pages.
  • Long sheets continue onto additional pages, each headed "(continued)".

Browser privacy

  • Processing occurs locally in the browser.
  • Files are not uploaded to Looty Tools.
  • Conversion results remain on your device.

Limits

  • Maximum file size is 10 MB.
  • Up to 20 worksheets, 5,000 rows and 50 columns per selected sheet, and 100,000 selected cells, producing up to 100 pages.
  • Cell fill/background colors, bold/italic emphasis, custom fonts, alignment, and border styles are not preserved — only values and merged-cell layout carry over.
  • Hidden worksheets are not detected for ODS files; every worksheet is treated as visible and selectable.
  • Overly long cell text is truncated with an ellipsis rather than wrapped onto multiple lines.

ODS to PDF FAQ

Is my ODS file uploaded anywhere?
No. Conversion runs locally in the browser. Your file is not uploaded to Looty Tools.
What does the PDF actually contain?
A readable table PDF built from each selected worksheet's displayed cell values — not a pixel-for-pixel copy of how the sheet looks in LibreOffice Calc or Excel. Text, numbers, dates, percentages, currency, and blank cells all render as their displayed value, and merged cells are preserved.
Are formulas recalculated?
No. The PDF shows each formula cell’s cached/displayed result from the file itself — formulas are not recalculated during conversion.
Are cell colors, fonts, and borders preserved?
No. This converter reads cell values, merged-cell layout, and column-width hints, but not visual cell styling — fill/background colors, bold/italic emphasis, custom fonts, alignment, and border styles are not carried over. All cells render in one consistent typeface and grid.
Are hidden worksheets excluded?
No, not for ODS files — worksheet visibility metadata is not exposed by this tool’s parser for the ODS format, so every worksheet is treated as visible and selectable.
How does pagination work for large spreadsheets?
Each worksheet gets its own page(s), titled with the sheet name (and its position among multiple sheets). Long sheets continue across additional pages headed "(continued)". Choose Auto orientation to have wide sheets render as landscape, or enable "Fit worksheet width to page" to scale wide tables down rather than continuing them onto extra pages sideways. Overly long cell text is truncated with an ellipsis rather than wrapped onto multiple lines, keeping row heights predictable during pagination.
What is the maximum spreadsheet size?
Up to 20 worksheets, 5,000 rows and 50 columns per selected sheet, and 100,000 selected cells total, producing up to 100 PDF pages.
What is the maximum file size?
The maximum file size is 10 MB.
