About this tool
XLSX is the standard Microsoft Excel workbook format since Excel 2007, opened by Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers and LibreOffice. TSV (tab-separated values) is a plain-text table with tabs between the columns, safe for values that contain commas.
This converter turns your XLSX file into TSV, the right choice for data exchange, scripts and pasting tables between programs. The values of the first sheet – or of every sheet, each as its own file – are saved as TSV in UTF-8; formulas become their results and formatting is dropped. Add up to 10 files at once – each one is converted in the background, so you can keep using the site and download every result as soon as it is ready.
Spreadsheets are converted on our server: the upload starts only after you confirm, the original is deleted after conversion and the result is kept for 7 days unless you delete it sooner.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert XLSX to TSV?
Choose or drop your XLSX file, keep TSV as the output and click Convert. After you confirm the upload, our server converts the file and shows the progress; then you download the TSV file.
Can I convert several XLSX files at once?
Yes. Add up to 10 files at a time. Each gets its own background job with its own progress, and you can download each result as soon as it is finished.
How large can the file be?
Each file can be up to 100 MB.
What happens to my file?
It is uploaded only after you confirm. The original is deleted as soon as the conversion is finished, and the TSV file is kept for 7 days so you can download it – you can delete it yourself at any time.
Is the XLSX to TSV converter free?
Yes. It is free, without sign-up and without a watermark.
What happens to formulas, formatting and other sheets?
TSV stores plain values only: formulas become their results and formatting is dropped. By default the first sheet is saved; choose “Every sheet” under “Options” to get one TSV file per sheet in a ZIP.
