Frequently asked questions

Why does Excel show garbled characters in a CSV?

Excel reads UTF-8 without a byte order mark as a legacy encoding. That is why CSV from XLSX is saved as UTF-8 with BOM by default. You can also pick the delimiter: Excel in many European locales expects a semicolon.

Is converting XLSX to CSV free?

Yes. Conversion is free, with no sign-up and no watermarks.

Are my XLSX files uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs in your browser, so your files never leave your device.

What data is kept when converting XLSX to CSV?

All cell values and column headers. Formulas are saved as their calculated results; formatting, charts and images are not carried over, since CSV and JSON store data only.
