Convert NUMBERS to XLS (Excel)

The NUMBERS file extension refers to files created by Apple Numbers, a spreadsheet application developed by Apple Inc. Primarily used on macOS and iOS, Numbers is part of Apple's iWork productivity suite. The software allows users to create and manage spreadsheets with a variety of advanced formatting and calculation features. Since its introduction in 2007, Numbers has provided an alternative to other spreadsheet programs, incorporating unique tools and a user-friendly interface. Its NUMBERS file format ensures seamless integration within the Apple ecosystem, offering flexibility and efficiency for professional and personal data organization.

The XLS file extension, short for "Excel Spreadsheet", is a legacy format used by Microsoft Excel for storing spreadsheet data. Introduced with Excel 2.0 in 1987, it was the primary format until the introduction of XLSX in 2007. XLS files contain data organized in rows and columns, supporting formulas, macros, and various formatting options, making them essential for data analysis and financial reporting. Despite being replaced by the more robust and secure XLSX format, XLS files remain widely used in many legacy systems and applications.
