A quick pre-send cleanup: gridlines off, zoom reset, every sheet back at A1, and author metadata stripped. Pick what you want, drop the file, download a clean copy. Runs in your browser.
ModelMint's Prepare to Share runs this cleanup (and more) inside Excel in one click, and Send Workbook attaches a clean PDF and xlsx to an Outlook draft. $89 a year.
Sending a model to a client or partner with gridlines on, a zoomed-in sheet, the cursor parked deep in the model, and your name in the file properties looks unfinished. This tool fixes those in one pass: it turns off gridlines, resets zoom to 100 percent, sends every sheet back to cell A1, and clears author and company metadata. It patches only those specific settings, so your formulas, formatting, charts, and pivot tables are left exactly as they were, and your original file is never touched, you download a separate prepared copy.
How do I clean up an Excel file before sending it?
Upload the workbook, choose the options you want, and download the prepared copy. See our guide on preparing an Excel file to share.
Does this change my charts or formatting?
No. It edits only the view settings and metadata you select. Everything else is byte-for-byte unchanged.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser.
