Why convert TSV to ODS?

Like CSV: a single sheet and no formatting. As ODS it opens in LibreOffice and meets open-format requirements.

About the formats

TSV, tab-separated tables

TSV is like CSV but separates columns with tabs, so commas inside the text are not a problem.

Strengths: It pastes straight into a spreadsheet and is common for scientific data.

Limits: Like CSV: a single sheet and no formatting.

ODS, the open spreadsheet

ODS is the open standard spreadsheet format of LibreOffice and OpenOffice.

Strengths: It does not depend on any vendor and many public bodies require it.

Limits: Outside LibreOffice not everyone opens it comfortably.

Frequently asked questions

Is my TSV uploaded to a server to turn it into ODS?

No. The TSV to ODS conversion runs entirely in your browser, with code downloaded from this site and executed on your device. You can check it in the Network tab of the developer tools or by going offline after the page loads.

Is there a size limit?

Up to 1 GB on desktop and about 200 MB on mobile, although a huge spreadsheet may take a few seconds.

Can I convert several TSV files at once?

Yes. Drop as many TSV files as you like: several are converted at the same time, depending on your processor cores, and when they finish you can download each ODS or all of them in a ZIP.
