About this tool
What does Copy table put on the clipboard?
It offers formatted HTML and tab-separated text. A spreadsheet can split tabs into columns; an editor supporting rich paste can use the table. Copy Markdown is a separate action.
Does the preview limit the exported rows?
No. The preview is paginated and shows up to 20 columns. Copy and download include the complete selected worksheet. Check its worksheet choice first.
What should I inspect before sharing the excel to text output?
Exports displayed cell values, not formulas or charts. Browse previews in groups of 50 rows and up to 20 columns; copying and downloading includes all rows and columns. Download the output and open it in the receiving application. A browser download request does not confirm that saving finished.
