Frequently Asked Questions

What is CSV?

CSV stands for Comma-Separated Values. It is a plain text file format for storing tabular data. Each line is a row, and commas (or other delimiters) separate the values. It's a simple, universal format for spreadsheet data.

Why would I convert CSV to a PDF?

Converting CSV to PDF is useful when you need to present data in a clean, read-only format. It's perfect for creating reports, catalogs, or data summaries that you can easily share or print, while ensuring the layout and formatting remain consistent for everyone who views it.

How does the tool handle wide tables with many columns?

We designed the tool specifically for this. First, select the "Landscape" orientation to get more horizontal space. Then, adjust the "Table Scale / Zoom" option. A value below 100% will decrease the font size, allowing more columns to fit on the page. The tool will also automatically create new pages if the table is too long vertically.

Does this tool handle commas and quotes inside the data fields?

Yes. It uses a proper CSV parser that understands standard formatting rules. If a field contains a comma or a newline, it should be enclosed in double quotes. If a field contains a double quote, it should be escaped by another double quote (e.g., `""The Quote""`). The tool will handle this correctly.

Is the data I enter kept private?

Yes, your data is 100% private. All parsing and conversion from CSV to PDF happens entirely within your web browser. Your data is never sent to our servers, ensuring your information remains completely secure and confidential.
