How to convert ODS to PDF

- Download your new .PDF file.
What to expect
- All sheets are exported by default - select only the sheets you need before exporting to avoid unwanted pages in the PDF.
- Columns wider than the page will be clipped; set scaling to fit in LibreOffice (Format > Page Style) or use Page Layout > Scale to Fit in Excel.
- Formulas export as their calculated results - the recipient cannot see or edit the underlying formulas in the PDF.
Frequently asked questions
Does LibreOffice export all sheets or just the active one?
By default all sheets are included. In the Export as PDF dialog, change the Range to 'Selected sheets' to limit the output.
Why are some columns missing from my PDF?
The sheet is wider than the page. In LibreOffice set scaling under Format > Page Style; in Excel use Page Layout > Scale to Fit.
Will the PDF text be searchable?
Yes - LibreOffice, Excel, and Google Sheets all produce text-based PDFs with selectable, searchable text by default.
How do I keep fonts looking correct across devices?
In LibreOffice's Export as PDF dialog, enable the 'Embed fonts' option to prevent font substitution on machines that lack the same fonts.
