Optimize for AI & RAG

Extra cleanup for LLM ingestion: strip HTML, fix smart quotes, tidy Unicode and spacing.

Add YAML front matter

Prepend a metadata block (title, source, date, word & token counts) for knowledge bases and RAG.

Add table of contents

Build a linked index from the headings. Handy for long documents.

Export RAG chunks (.json)

Split the result into retrieval-ready chunks. Download per file from the result panel.

Most converters quietly upload your documents to a server. This one physically can't.

01Why

Coordinates in,
a grid out.

A SYLK file stores every cell as a coordinate record with a value, not a grid you can read. The converter walks those records and rebuilds them into a tidy Markdown table.

02Features

Everything you
actually need.

Legacy spreadsheet records in, a clean Markdown table out, with no server and no account anywhere.

It never leaves your browser

The SYLK file is parsed and rebuilt on your own device. Nothing is uploaded to any server, ever.

Works offline

Once the page has loaded you can switch off your connection and it keeps converting.

C;Y1;X1;K"Name"

Old format, new table

SYLK predates modern spreadsheets; its C-records are parsed and rebuilt into clean Markdown you can actually read.

éñü

Unicode safe

Accents, symbols and non-Latin scripts come through intact as UTF-8.

Free, and unlimited

No sign-up, no quotas, no watermarks. Convert one file or a thousand; it all runs the same way, on your own device.

03Fidelity

Old records,
new table.

Honest about what comes through, and what doesn't. These are the same notes the Formats list shows for SYLK, so the page never drifts from what the converter really does.
