XLSX to Markdown
Each worksheet becomes its own Markdown table under a heading with the sheet name. Blank spacer columns — the ones many spreadsheets use for visual separation — are removed so the table reads properly.

How it works
- Drop your file on the box above, or click to choose one.
- The converter loads once, about 1.8 MB, and runs in this tab. Your file is not uploaded.
- Copy the Markdown, or download it as a
.mdfile.
What survives
- One GFM pipe table per worksheet, under the sheet name as a heading
- The first row promoted to a real table header
- Dates and numbers rendered as displayed rather than as serial numbers
- Formula results, not formula text
What does not
- Charts, images and pivot tables are not represented — only cell values.
- Cell colours and conditional formatting carry no meaning in Markdown and are dropped.
- Very wide sheets produce very wide tables; Markdown has no column width to fall back on.
Questions
Why is my header row correct here but wrong in other anydoc-based tools?
A known bug in the current engine synthesises a blank header row whenever a sheet contains a fully empty column, pushing the real header down into the body. This site corrects that before showing you the result.
Are .xlsm macros a problem?
No. A .xlsm is a .xlsx that may carry VBA. Only cell values are read; macros are never executed.
Is my file uploaded to a server?
No. The converter is a WebAssembly build of the anydoc engine that runs inside your browser tab. Your file is read into memory, converted, and discarded when you close the page. Nothing is transmitted, stored, or logged.
