Convert ODT to PDF
on iPhone, privately.

ODT is LibreOffice's document format, and plenty of apps still cannot open it. Filemorph converts an ODT file to PDF on your iPhone, so it opens for anyone.

Filemorph converting an ODT document to PDF on iPhone

ODT files come out of LibreOffice, OpenOffice and a handful of other open-source suites, and while Word and Pages can sometimes open them, plenty of viewers and upload forms cannot. A PDF removes the guesswork, opening the same way in every browser, phone and desktop.

Filemorph renders the ODT with WebKit, Apple's browser engine, to reproduce text, tables and images from the original document. Complex layouts, macros and embedded fonts may differ from how the document looks in LibreOffice itself, so review anything with heavy custom formatting before treating the PDF as final.

How to convert ODT to PDF on iPhone

Pro
  1. Add your ODT file. Open Filemorph and pick the ODT file from Files or the Share sheet.
  2. Choose PDF. Tap Convert and choose PDF as the output format.
  3. Save or share. Tap Convert. The PDF saves locally, ready to send to anyone.

In the app: Convert → To PDF.

Why convert ODT to PDF?

PDF opens reliably everywhere, while ODT support varies from one app to the next. Converting an ODT document to PDF is the safer choice any time it is headed to someone whose software you cannot predict.

Is it private?

Yes. Unlike web converters that upload your files to a server, Filemorph converts every file locally using Apple's frameworks. Nothing leaves your device, and it works with no internet connection. This operation is part of Filemorph Pro ($29.99/year, 7-day free trial on monthly and annual plans).

FAQ

ODT → PDF — common questions.

Does ODT to PDF preserve formatting exactly? +

It renders the document's text, tables and images closely, but complex layouts, macros and embedded fonts may differ from how the file looks in LibreOffice. Review heavily formatted documents before sending.

Do I need LibreOffice installed to convert? +

No. Filemorph reads the ODT file directly and does not require LibreOffice or any other office suite.

Will comments and track changes show in the PDF? +

No. The conversion renders the document as it appears on the page, not comments, revision history or track-changes markup.
