XLTX files are Excel spreadsheet templates, but some spreadsheet programs and document workflows require an ODS file. Converting the template lets you edit or share its spreadsheet content in OpenDocument-compatible software such as LibreOffice Calc.

What the XLTX format is

XLTX is the Office Open XML format for Excel spreadsheet templates. It can contain preset sheets, formatting, formulas, and sample content; Microsoft Excel creates and uses these files. You may receive one when someone shares a reusable workbook design rather than a finished spreadsheet.

What the ODS format is

ODS (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) is an open spreadsheet format used by LibreOffice Calc and other OpenDocument-compatible programs. It is useful for sharing editable spreadsheets across software that supports the OpenDocument standard. ODS is a spreadsheet format, not a template format; LibreOffice’s template format is OTS.

How to convert XLTX to ODS

Online on 101convert.com

  1. Upload the XLTX file on this page. You can add several files for batch conversion; the per-file size limit is shown on the page.
  2. Choose ODS as the output format and start the conversion. The conversion runs on the site’s server with LibreOffice.
  3. Download the converted ODS file.

Offline with desktop software

LibreOffice Calc is free and runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Open the XLTX file with File → Open, then use File → Save As, select ODF Spreadsheet (.ods) as the file type, and save. If Calc opens the XLTX as a new workbook based on the template, save that workbook as ODS.

Microsoft Excel can also save the workbook in OpenDocument format. Open the XLTX file, choose File → Save As, select OpenDocument Spreadsheet (*.ods) as the format, and save the copy.

Compatibility and template behavior

ODS conversion can change the appearance or behavior of Excel-specific formulas, formatting, charts, and other workbook features. Check the converted file in the program where it will be used. Saving as ODS creates a spreadsheet, not a reusable template; for a LibreOffice template, save the result in OTS format instead.
