About converting ODS to PDF
The point of a PDF is that it stops changing. We open the ODS, lay it out with the fonts it asks for and freeze the result — so the copy you send opens the same way on a phone, on a Mac and on a ten-year-old office printer. Metric-compatible substitutes for the common Microsoft fonts are installed, so a document set in Calibri keeps its line breaks.
How to convert ODS to PDF
Add your ODS file
Drag it onto the box above, click to browse, or paste it straight from your clipboard.
Check the settings
PDF is already selected. The defaults suit most files, and you can open Settings if you want to change the quality or size.
Download the PDF
Most files are ready in a second or two. Larger ones convert in the background while you watch the progress.
Quality
The file is re-encoded, so the PDF is visually equivalent rather than bit-for-bit identical. At the default settings the difference is not something you would notice.
File size
Up to 150 MB per file on this conversion
Speed
Runs in the background — you can watch the progress and download when it finishes
