About This Feature

Overview

Download in WPS Spreadsheet on macOS helps you export the current table or current view to another file output or to a multidimensional table for sharing, archiving, and follow-up processing.

Core tasks include:

Export to a multidimensional table from the whole table or the current datasheet.
Export visible fields and records from the toolbar to a new file, to the current location, or as a compressed package.

This feature is useful for team archiving, cross-tool sharing, and organizing visible images and attachments in batches.

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Supports exporting the whole table, the current datasheet, or the current view from WPS Spreadsheet. Different export methods handle visible images and attachments differently.	Microsoft provides official Mac download and installation steps for Microsoft 365 apps, then file work continues inside the installed apps.	Google Drive supports downloading files and saving Docs, Sheets, and Slides files in other formats.	Notion supports exporting pages or databases as PDF, HTML, Markdown, and CSV, and some export scope options depend on plan.	Adobe Acrobat on the web supports exporting PDFs to other formats.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: export entry points are available in both File and the top toolbar, so you can export the current datasheet or current view directly. Distinct: compressed export can separately package visible images and attachments.	Compared with WPS: the cited page focuses on suite download and installation, not view-based table export.	Compared with WPS: the cited page focuses on cloud file download and format conversion, not exporting visible fields and records from a table view.	Compared with WPS: it supports several export formats, but some export scope options depend on plan and its database export model differs from spreadsheet view export.	Compared with WPS: it focuses on PDF conversion rather than spreadsheet view export.

Overall Conclusion

If your main task is exporting the current datasheet, current view, and visible attachments from a spreadsheet workflow on macOS, WPS offers a more direct path inside the spreadsheet interface.
