ODS to XLSX
Turn OpenDocument spreadsheet files into Excel workbook files on your own Mac, Windows or Linux computer. Asteria is free, works offline, and never uploads your files.
How to do it
- Download Asteria and open it. It's free and needs no account.
- Drop your ODS files onto its window, or press ⌘O (Ctrl O on Windows) to choose them. Drop as many as you like.
- Type excel workbookand press Enter. Excel .xlsx from XLS, ODS or CSV.
- The first time, Asteria asks to download LibreOffice, a free add-on from The Document Foundation, under the MPL-2.0 license. It shows the download size before you say yes, and needs no administrator password.
- Press ⌘↵ (Ctrl ↵ on Windows) to save. The XLSX files appear next to the originals, which stay exactly as they were.
What it needs
ODS to XLSX uses LibreOffice, a free program for office documents. Asteria doesn't bundle it. The first time you need it, Asteria offers to download it, checks the download against a pinned checksum, and keeps it in its own folder, where Settings can remove it again. If LibreOffice is already on your computer, Asteria uses that copy.
How it was tested
A real ODS file was converted on macOS on Apple silicon and Linux, and the XLSX that came out was opened and checked with zip package + XML text to make sure it is what it says it is.
