Office documents

You can create and edit office documents directly in onmeil.eu — in your browser, with nothing to install. We support the three most common formats:

• Document (.docx) — like Microsoft Word
• Spreadsheet (.xlsx) — like Microsoft Excel
• Presentation (.pptx) — like Microsoft PowerPoint

Create a new document

1. Go to Files
2. Click New document at the top
3. Choose a type:
   • Document (.docx)
   • Spreadsheet (.xlsx)
   • Presentation (.pptx)
4. Give it a name
5. Click Create

The editor opens right away. Your changes are saved automatically as you work — you'll see "Saved" or "Safely autosaved at {time}" at the top.

Upload an existing file

Already have a .docx, .xlsx or .pptx from Word, Excel or PowerPoint?

1. Go to Files
2. Click Upload at the top (or drag the file straight onto the page)
3. Pick the file from your disk
4. It shows up in the list

Click the file in the list to open it in the editor — you can keep editing from there.

Saving and autosave

The editor saves continuously while you work. You never have to hit save yourself. Indicators at the top:

• Saving… — changes are on their way up
• Saved — everything is safe
• Safely autosaved at {time} — the last save was recent
• Unsaved changes — shows briefly before the next autosave
• Error saving — check your internet connection

Rename a file

Click the file name at the top of the editor. Type a new name, press Enter to save, or Esc to cancel.

Share a document

Inside the editor you'll find a Share button. It opens the same sharing dialog you find in the file list — you can invite others with view or edit access. See Sharing and permissions for details.

Availability of sharing features in the editor

Some sharing actions inside the editor depend on an update we're still working on — if you see "Sharing coming soon", you can go back to the file list and share from there in the meantime.

Download as .docx / .xlsx / .pptx

You can download the file locally to open it in Word, Excel or PowerPoint:

1. Go back to the file list
2. Find the file
3. Click the Download action

Tips

• Use Files as your main storage — that way your documents stay in sync with everything on onmeil.eu, and you can share them in one click
• The editor supports simultaneous editing — several people can work in the same document at once, each with their own cursor
• Format compatibility — we follow Microsoft's open standards so the files work in Word/Excel/PowerPoint when you download them
