Word to XLSX Conversion FAQ
How do I convert Word to XLSX?
+
Drop your Word file onto the upload area. PDF.to reads the source structure and writes an equivalent XLSX document you can download immediately.
Will styles, headings, and lists survive the Word to XLSX conversion?
+
Yes. Heading levels, paragraph styles, ordered and unordered lists, and inline formatting (bold, italic, links) are mapped to XLSX equivalents.
Do tables in my Word come through correctly in the XLSX?
+
Yes — tables are reconstructed as native XLSX tables with row, column, and merged-cell structure intact.
Will images embedded in my Word stay embedded in the XLSX?
+
Yes, at original resolution and position. Inline images, floated images, and image-in-table cells all carry over.
Does the converter preserve track-changes and comments?
+
Yes when both Word and XLSX support them. If XLSX has no comment model, comments become inline annotations or are stripped — your choice in the options panel.
Can PDF.to batch-convert many Word files at once?
+
Yes — drag a folder onto the page. Each Word becomes a separate XLSX, all delivered as a ZIP.
What is the largest Word file I can convert?
+
100 MB on the free plan, 5 GB on PRO. Documents that large usually have heavy embedded images.
Will hyperlinks and cross-references in the Word stay working in the XLSX?
+
Yes. URLs, internal cross-references, footnotes, and bookmarks are all mapped to their XLSX equivalents.
Is the Word to XLSX converter free?
+
Yes for documents under 100 MB. PRO accounts get larger files, faster processing, and batch ZIP delivery.
Does PDF.to keep my Word content?
+
No. Uploaded Word files and converted XLSX outputs are deleted from our servers within an hour. Conversion runs in an isolated worker.
Why does my XLSX look slightly different from my Word?
+
Different document formats have different default fonts, margins, and pagination rules. We preserve content faithfully; minor visual differences in fonts or page breaks are expected.
Can I convert Word to XLSX on a phone or tablet?
+
Yes. The whole conversion runs in your browser — upload your Word, get the XLSX back, no app to install.
