Frequently Asked Questions
Does it convert all sheets?
CSV files cannot contain multiple sheets. By default, only the first sheet or the active sheet of your workbook is converted.
How are formulas handled?
Formulas are calculated first and then replaced by their final computed values in the CSV output file, preserving only the results.
What happens to formatting?
CSV is a plain text format. All cell colors, fonts, and borders are stripped away; only the raw data remains.
Is UTF-8 supported?
Yes, we encode the output in UTF-8 to preserve special characters, accented letters, and symbols from virtually all languages around the world.
