Why convert XLSX to TSV?
XLSX is the current Microsoft Excel workbook format with worksheets, formulas, and formatted cells. Converting it to TSV creates a tab-separated table format used to exchange rows and columns between spreadsheets, databases, and data tools, ready for workflows that use the destination format.
TSV opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Apple Numbers, LibreOffice Calc, database tools, and text editors.
