Formats & limitations

A damaged or protected file, an unsupported codec, a blocked engine download, or limited browser memory can prevent conversion. Try a smaller compatible sample first.

This converter processes file content in your browser. Some formats download extra engine code first; the converter does not upload the file content to that code provider.

This document route rebuilds readable text in the new format. It does not preserve the original page layout, embedded pictures, tracked changes or rich styling. Compare the exported paragraphs with the source before editing or sharing. This route converts cell values rather than a complete workbook. Charts, macros and formatting are not retained. Formulas use cached results or inert text, and date serials may remain numbers. JSON input must be a table-like array of records or rows.

GEEDITOR / FODS → JSON

About this conversion · FODS → JSON

Prepare FODS data as JSON for an importer or script. Match the destination’s expected delimiter, row structure and treatment of identifiers before exporting the full dataset.

JSON output is an array of row arrays, including the header row; it is not automatically an array of keyed objects. NDJSON output places one row array on each line. Confirm that the receiving program expects this structure.

This route rebuilds supported cell values, not the complete workbook. Charts, macros and formatting are not preserved. Formulas become cached results or inert text; date serials can remain numbers, so check dates and identifiers after import.

CSV, TSV, JSON and NDJSON output use only the first worksheet. To export another sheet, move or copy it into the first position before saving the source file. This interface has no worksheet selector.

How to convert

  1. Click “Choose files” and select the original FODS file. Start with one file when comparing settings.
  2. Check that the output selector shows JSON. The instructions here describe this choice; changing the output can change which settings apply.
  3. Click “Convert files”, then save the result from its file row. “Download all” puts completed files into a ZIP; it does not combine their contents.
  4. Open the JSON result and compare row counts, headers, empty cells, dates and identifiers with the FODS source. Preserve codes such as 00123 as text in the receiving application; do not assume its automatic type detection is correct.

Frequently asked questions

What JSON structure does the converter accept or produce?

JSON output is an array of row arrays, including the header row; it is not automatically an array of keyed objects. NDJSON output places one row array on each line. Confirm that the receiving program expects this structure.

How do I keep the correct sheet, dates and identifiers?

CSV, TSV, JSON and NDJSON output use only the first worksheet. To export another sheet, move or copy it into the first position before saving the source file. This interface has no worksheet selector. Open the JSON result and compare row counts, headers, empty cells, dates and identifiers with the FODS source. Preserve codes such as 00123 as text in the receiving application; do not assume its automatic type detection is correct.

What should I do when a file exceeds the limits?

Table processing is limited to 100 sheets, 100,000 rows per sheet, 1,024 columns per row and 1,000,000 cells in total. Text-table inputs are limited to 16 MB; split larger datasets while keeping headers consistent.
