How to convert ODT to PDF

  1. Add your ODT documents

    Drop ODT files onto the box above, or click it to choose them. ToAny reads the file's contents to detect the type, so a wrong extension does not matter.

  2. PDF is already chosen

    Press Convert and confirm the upload. The file is sent to the ToAny conversion server, converted to PDF and removed afterwards.

  3. Download

    Save the PDF, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.

Why ToAny

  • Honest about uploads

    Browsers cannot convert ODT to PDF reliably, so this pair runs on our server. You are asked before anything is sent, and the page says so plainly.

  • Removed afterwards

    The uploaded file and the result are deleted once the conversion has finished. Nobody looks at them and they are not used for anything else.

  • No account

    No sign-up, no email address and no watermark on the result.

ODT to PDF: what to expect

ODT is unfamiliar to many recipients and does not always open cleanly in Word. PDF looks the same on every device and keeps several pages in one file. ODT is at home in documents in open-source office suites; PDF is the usual choice for documents that must look the same everywhere, and printing.

ODT vs PDF

ODT

OpenDocument text

ODT is the open-standard document format used by LibreOffice Writer and OpenOffice. Word and Google Docs can open it, though complex formatting does not always survive the trip.

Opens in LibreOffice, OpenOffice, Google Docs, recent Microsoft Word

PDF

PDF document

PDF fixes a document's layout so it looks identical on every screen and printer. That makes it the default for forms, invoices and anything sent to print, and also what makes it awkward to edit.

Questions

Is my ODT file uploaded?

Yes, for this conversion. Browsers cannot convert ODT to PDF reliably, so after you confirm, the file is uploaded over an encrypted connection to the ToAny conversion server, converted automatically and deleted once the conversion has finished. Most other conversions on ToAny run in your browser and upload nothing.

Is anything lost when converting ODT to PDF?

Text is kept. Formatting carries over only as far as PDF supports it.

Can I convert several ODT files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like, convert them together and download each result or all of them as one ZIP.

How do I convert ODT to PDF on Windows, Mac, iPhone or Android?

The steps are the same everywhere because ToAny runs in the web browser: open this page in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox, add the ODT file, press Convert and save the PDF. There is nothing to install.

Is there a file size limit?

Yes. Files sent to the conversion server are capped in size, and the page tells you when a file is too large to upload.
