Questions
Does converting XLSM to PDF lose quality?
Only the values come across: formulas, formatting and charts are left out.
What is the PDF format?
Portable Document Format, published by Adobe in 1993 and standardized as ISO 32000. It’s a page-description format: it stores text, vector shapes and images as drawing instructions rather than as pixels, so a page stays sharp at any zoom. A single file can carry hundreds of pages, embedded fonts and attachments, and every reader since renders it the same way.
What is the XLSM format?
The XLSX format with macros allowed: the same ZIP of XML sheets and values, plus a VBA project that browsers can’t run. fileclay reads the values only, so the macros stay behind and the table travels.
Are the files uploaded?
No. The file is opened in this tab, converted here and saved from here. There’s no account and no watermark.
How many files can be converted at once?
Up to 200 per batch and about 2 GB per file, within the memory this device has available.
