How do I convert a Numbers spreadsheet to PDF?

Upload the .numbers file, press Convert, and download the PDF. It opens on any device and prints exactly the same everywhere.

Are all sheets included?

Yes — every sheet in the document is rendered, in order. Large tables that don't fit one page are split across pages, as they would be when printing.

Will it look the same as in Numbers?

Tables, number formats, colours and most charts render faithfully. Fonts that aren't installed on our server are replaced with a close equivalent, and the page breaks are chosen by the converter rather than by Numbers' print layout.

What does the embedded-preview notice mean?

If our importer can't read the file — typically one saved by a very recent Numbers release — we return the preview that Numbers stores inside the document instead and label it clearly. It may cover only the first sheet.

Can I choose landscape or fit-to-width?

Not yet — the converter uses the sheet's own page setup as far as it is stored in the file. For fine print control, exporting from Numbers itself remains the most precise option.

Is the PDF searchable?

Yes. The PDF contains real text, so you can search, copy cell values and use screen readers.

How do I upload a Numbers document that appears as a folder?

Right-click it in Finder, choose Compress, and upload the .zip. The bundle inside is detected automatically.

Is there a size limit?

25 MB per file and 60 seconds per conversion.

Do you store my spreadsheet?

No. It is processed in a temporary workspace on our server and deleted right after the PDF is delivered; no one at our end looks at it.

Yes — no signup, no watermark, no fee.

Good to know

A spreadsheet as a PDF is a snapshot: the numbers as they stood at a moment in time, laid out for reading rather than editing. That is what you want for an invoice, a budget sent to a client, a grade sheet or a monthly report — nobody should be able to nudge a cell, and it must look identical whether it is opened on a phone, a Windows PC or a printer. Numbers files fail all three of those tests outside the Apple ecosystem; PDFs pass them everywhere.

The conversion renders each sheet in turn and paginates tables that overflow a page, so wide financial models can produce many pages. Before converting, it helps to hide helper columns, set the table to fit the page width in Numbers, and delete empty scratch sheets — anything on the canvas ends up in the PDF. Charts come through as vector graphics and remain crisp at any zoom level.

If the recipient needs to work with the figures, send them an Excel workbook alongside the PDF, or just the raw data as CSV. And once you have the PDF, the browser-based tools can compress it, stamp it as a draft or add a password without uploading anything again.
