Excel converter

Convert Excel worksheets to Markdown tables

Turn XLSX workbook content into readable Markdown without uploading free-tier files. Use the result in documentation, GitHub, knowledge bases, or AI workflows.

Convert XLSX to Markdown

Choose an .xlsx workbook and run the same local converter used on the homepage. Markdown is best for publishing the readable values and table structure, not reproducing spreadsheet behavior.

What usually carries over

  • Worksheet values and labels exposed by the workbook.
  • Rows and columns represented as readable Markdown tables.
  • Multiple sheet content in a linear, text-friendly document.
  • Plain output that works well in documentation and version control.

What to review afterward

  • Formulas become displayed content rather than live calculations.
  • Merged cells and multi-row headers can need manual restructuring.
  • Charts, macros, filters, conditional formatting, and styling are not interactive.
  • Very wide tables may be easier to split into smaller sections.

Excel conversion questions

Which spreadsheet files are supported?

The free converter supports modern Excel .xlsx workbooks. It does not currently list legacy .xls, CSV, or Google Sheets links as supported inputs.

Are Excel formulas preserved?

Markdown tables represent displayed values and text, not a live spreadsheet model. Review formulas, calculated values, and formatting after conversion.

Can I convert multiple workbooks?

Yes. Select up to 8 supported files in a batch. Each file can be up to 10 MB, and you can start additional batches without a daily quota.

What happens to charts and formatting?

Markdown does not preserve workbook styling, interactive filters, macros, charts, or cell behavior. The useful output is the readable worksheet content and table structure.
