## Overview

Download Google Spreadsheets in various formats. Includes Canvas rendering limitation and workaround for content extraction.

## URLs

| Page | URL | Purpose |
|------|-----|---------|
| Spreadsheets | `https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets` | Spreadsheet home |
| Specific file | `https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/{FILE_ID}` | Open specific spreadsheet |

## Critical Constraints

- **Google Account Required**: Must be logged in to access files
- **Canvas Rendering**: Spreadsheet content renders in Canvas element, not accessible via DOM - direct content extraction is not possible
- **Download Required**: To read spreadsheet data programmatically, download the file first

## Workflow: Download Spreadsheet

### 1. Open the Spreadsheet

Navigate to the spreadsheet URL or open from Google Drive.

### 2. Open File Menu

Click the File menu in the top menu bar.

| Language | Menu Item |
|----------|-----------|
| Japanese | ファイル |
| English | File |

### 3. Select Download

Hover over or click the Download submenu.

| Language | Menu Item |
|----------|-----------|
| Japanese | ダウンロード |
| English | Download |

### 4. Choose Format

Select the desired format:

| Format | Japanese Label | English Label | Use Case |
|--------|---------------|---------------|----------|
| Excel | Microsoft Excel(.xlsx) | Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) | Full formatting, formulas |
| CSV | カンマ区切り形式(.csv) | Comma-separated values (.csv) | Plain data, single sheet |
| PDF | PDF(.pdf) | PDF (.pdf) | Print-ready document |

### 5. Locate Downloaded File

The file downloads to your browser's default download location. Check your downloads folder.

## Troubleshooting

| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Cannot read cell content | Canvas rendering | Download file and parse locally |
| Download menu not visible | Menu not expanded | Click File first, then hover Download |
| Wrong sheet downloaded | Multi-sheet workbook | CSV exports active sheet only; use Excel for all sheets |
| Encoding issues in CSV | Non-ASCII characters | Use Excel format instead |

## Notes

- CSV format exports only the active sheet
- Excel format preserves all sheets and formatting
- For large spreadsheets, download may take a few seconds
- Google Sheets formulas convert to static values in CSV
