Why convert TSV to XLSX?

Like CSV: a single sheet and no formatting. As XLSX you open it in Excel with its columns and sheets.

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.

XLSX, the Excel workbook

XLSX is the Microsoft Excel format: a workbook with one or more sheets, data types and formatting.

Strengths: It is what almost any office expects.

Limits: Other apps and databases usually ask for CSV to import data.

Frequently asked questions

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

No. The TSV to XLSX 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 XLSX or all of them in a ZIP.
