Do I need LibreOffice Calc installed to convert ODS to PDF?

No. The conversion runs entirely on the server — you only need a browser to upload the file and download the PDF, so it works even on a computer that has only Microsoft Office or no spreadsheet app at all.

Will the spreadsheet layout and formulas display correctly?

Yes. The visible content, including calculated formula results, is rendered exactly as it appears in Calc. The formulas themselves become static values in the PDF, since a PDF is not editable and shows only the final numbers.

My sheet is too wide and gets cut off — how do I fix it?

Wide spreadsheets overflow the page. In Calc, set the print range and use Format > Page Style > Sheet > Fit print range to width, or switch to landscape, so every column lands on the page before you convert.

Are charts, colours and cell borders kept?

Yes. Charts, cell background colours, borders and number formats such as currency and percentages are rendered into the PDF as they look on screen, so a dashboard sheet keeps its appearance.

Will every sheet in the workbook be included?

Yes. Each sheet is exported in tab order, one after another, so a multi-sheet Calc file becomes a single continuous PDF. Set a print range per sheet first if you want to limit what appears.

Can I make the header row repeat on each page?

Yes, if you set it in Calc. Use Format > Print Ranges > Edit to mark rows to repeat, and that header reprints at the top of every PDF page so a long table stays readable.

Why convert ODS to PDF instead of sending the file?

A PDF opens on any device without Calc or Excel, locks the layout so nothing shifts, and stops the recipient from accidentally changing a value or formula — ideal for sharing a finished report or invoice.

About ODS and PDF

Key things to know before you convert ODS to PDF:

ODS

ODS is the LibreOffice Calc / OpenDocument spreadsheet format — open, patent-free and compatible with all major office suites. Use it with LibreOffice, Apache OpenOffice or Google Sheets.

PDF

PDF is the universal document format: it locks in the exact layout on every device and prints identically everywhere. Turning an image into a PDF makes it easy to share, archive or print as a document rather than a raw photo.
