What to know about ODS to TSV conversion
- TSV holds a single table: convert the active sheet only, or all sheets at once (as a ZIP with one file per sheet).
- Cell values are exported as they were last calculated; formulas, formatting and charts are not part of the output.
- The TSV file includes a UTF-8 byte order mark so Excel opens accented characters correctly.
- TSV is best for data that contains commas, and pasting into spreadsheets, and opens in any spreadsheet or text editor.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to convert ODS to TSV here?
Yes. Your files are processed entirely on your own device by WebAssembly code running in the browser. They are never uploaded, so nobody else can see them, and the converter keeps working even if your connection drops after the page loads.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no server-side limit. The only limit is the memory available to your browser, typically 1.5–4 GB on desktop computers.
Can I convert several ODS files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted in parallel according to your device's CPU cores, and you can apply the same settings to all of them.
