Excel to PDF for startups
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets startup founders and teams convert Excel to PDF in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Converting Excel to PDF fixes the layout of a spreadsheet — columns, page breaks and print areas — into a shareable document.
Why startups convert Excel to PDF
A founder exports the pitch deck to PDF, merges it with financials into a data-room file, and sends a SAFE for e-signature — without paying for enterprise document software.
Built for pitch decks. Whether it's pitch decks, cap tables, contracts, Arthize's excel to pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Fundraising materials and cap tables are highly confidential; private processing is critical.
What matters when you convert Excel to PDF
Converting to PDF locks the spreadsheet's print layout.
Recipients can read it without Excel installed.
Print areas and page breaks are respected in the output.
