Excel to Markdown table

Copy a range in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers, paste it below, and get a Markdown table. You can also open an .xlsx, .xls, .ods or .csv file and pick the sheet. Numbers keep the formatting you see in the spreadsheet. Nothing is uploaded.

Why paste works

When you copy a range in Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice or Numbers, the clipboard holds the cells as tab-separated text, one row per line, with each value shown as it is formatted (2,000, €5, 12%). This page reads that text, so what you see in the spreadsheet is what lands in the table. Opening an .xlsx file gives the same formatted values for the sheet you pick. Formulas are not copied, only their results.

Merged cells and line breaks

Markdown tables have no merged cells: a merged range keeps its value in the first cell and leaves the others empty. Line breaks inside a cell (Alt+Enter in Excel) become <br> when the cells are pasted as CSV-style quoted text, and a space when read from an .xlsx file.

Turn a table into an image or PDF

Need the table as a picture for a slide, a chat message or an email? Copy the Markdown into Markdown to PDF, or render the HTML table with the Shotmint API: POST https://shotmint.creasework.com/v1/screenshot with {"html": "<table>…</table>", "selector": "table"} returns a PNG cropped to the table (1 credit; 25 free renders a month, then €5 for 2,000 that never expire). Scripts and AI agents can get a key with a bare POST https://shotmint.creasework.com/v1/keys/free.

FAQ

Is my data uploaded? No. Parsing and conversion run in your browser (spreadsheets are read with SheetJS, loaded only when you open a file); this page sends nothing to a server.

Do Chinese, Japanese or Korean characters line up? Yes: "Pad columns" counts wide characters and most emoji as two columns, the way monospaced editors draw them.
