Frequently Asked Questions

What is an XLS file?

An XLS file is a spreadsheet format created by Microsoft Excel using the .xls extension. It organizes data in rows and columns and can include formulas, charts, and formatting. While modern Excel versions use .xlsx for better interoperability, most spreadsheet programs support XLS files.

How do I translate an OpenOffice document?

Since native OpenOffice translation support is limited, using a specialized platform like Smartcat ensures more accurate and efficient translation.

Can Excel translate languages?

Excel offers basic translation features under the Review tab, but they are limited. For comprehensive translations, especially for large datasets, platforms like Smartcat deliver robust and precise results.

How do I convert an XLS file?

You can convert an XLS file using Excel’s "Save As" feature to formats such as XLSX, CSV, or PDF. Note that some formatting might be lost, and for extensive translation projects, Smartcat’s AI-enhanced process provides a more streamlined solution.

Can you translate an entire Excel spreadsheet?

Yes, Smartcat efficiently translates complete XLS files, preserving the structure and formatting while handling extensive datasets.

Is Smartcat secure for confidential data in XLS files?

Absolutely. Smartcat employs enterprise-grade security protocols, including advanced encryption and compliance with industry standards, to ensure your data is processed securely and remains confidential.
