XLSX to TXT Converter
Turn spreadsheet sheets into delimited text — choose the separator, qualifier and which sheet to export.
document.xlsx
0 KBDrop in a spreadsheet and get clean delimited text out — tab-separated, comma-separated, or whatever separator you choose. It reads .xlsx, .xls, .ods and .csv files, lets you pick which sheet to export from a multi-sheet workbook, and gives you fine control over how each row is written. It's the tool for feeding spreadsheet data into a system that wants plain text. Your file is parsed entirely in your browser and is never uploaded.
Choosing the sheet and delimiter
A workbook can hold many sheets, so the first step is picking the one you want — the tool lists them along with row and column counts so you know what you're exporting. Then choose a delimiter: tab is the traditional choice for .txt, but comma, semicolon, pipe or a custom character are all available. The right delimiter depends on what will read the file next; if the destination is another program, match whatever it expects.
Text qualifiers and tidying rows
When a cell contains the delimiter itself — a comma inside an address, say — a text qualifier (usually double quotes) wraps the field so it isn't split by mistake. You can wrap only the fields that need it or wrap every field. Alongside that, options to skip empty rows and columns, trim whitespace and treat the first row as headers let you clean up the export as you go, so the text file that comes out is ready to use rather than needing a second pass.
Everything stays on your device
The spreadsheet is read and converted right in your browser's memory — it's never sent to a server. That matters for the kind of data spreadsheets often hold: customer lists, finances, internal records. You get a live preview of the parsed grid before you commit, and can copy the result or download it as a text file.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which file types can it read?
Excel .xlsx and .xls, OpenDocument .ods, and .csv files. It parses them in the browser and converts the sheet you choose into delimited text.
My workbook has several sheets — can I pick one?
Yes. All sheets are listed with their row and column counts, and you select which one to export. You convert one sheet at a time.
What is a text qualifier and when do I need it?
A qualifier (typically double quotes) wraps a field so a delimiter inside the cell — like a comma in an address — does not split it into two. Use "wrap only when needed" for most cases, or wrap all fields for stricter tools.
Is my spreadsheet uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is read entirely in your browser's memory and never leaves your device, so even sensitive data stays private.
