How to use

  1. Add your XLSM file

    Drag the XLSM file onto the drop area above, or click it to pick a file from your device. You can add several files at once.

  2. Confirm ODS as the output

    ODS is already selected as the output format on this page. Only the options this format actually supports show up, such as a page range or sheet selection.

  3. Run the conversion

    Press the convert button. Processing happens on your own device, so the time depends on your computer rather than a server queue.

  4. Download the ODS file

    When it finishes, download the ODS file. Converting multiple files gives you the option to download them together as a ZIP.

Frequently asked questions

Is converting XLSM to ODS really free?

Yes. XLSM to ODS conversion is completely free with no signup, no watermark, and no daily limit on the free plan for ordinary use.

Are my XLSM files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so the XLSM file never leaves your device. That is also why it works without an internet connection once the page has loaded.

Does the ODS file get bigger than the XLSM?

It can go either way. Both formats are lossless, so nothing is thrown away — the size difference comes from how each one packs the same data.

Is there a file size limit for XLSM to ODS conversion?

The free plan handles files up to 200MB. Because processing happens on your own device, very large files depend on your computer's memory rather than a server quota.
