# Output formats

EPPlus can render the content of a workbook to other formats, for display on a web page, in an email or a document, or for printing and sharing. The output is a visual representation of the cells, with their values, number formats and styling, not a copy of the data.

| Format | What is rendered | Typical use |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [PDF](<https://epplussoftware.com/docs/output-formats/pdf/index.md>) | Worksheets, laid out as printed pages | Reports to print, archive or share |
| [HTML &amp; CSS](<https://epplussoftware.com/docs/output-formats/html/index.md>) | Ranges and tables, with the styling as CSS | Web pages, emails and dashboards |

More formats will be added in this section as they become available.

## Output formats or data export?

Output formats render what a worksheet looks like. To move the data itself between a worksheet and .NET objects, data tables, text files or JSON, see [Import/Export data](<https://epplussoftware.com/docs/import-export-data/index.md>).
