OFX to PDF Converter
Open your OFX file as a statement you can actually read, print or attach to a return.

Accepts .ofx, .qfx and .qbo - up to 15 MB
An OFX file is written for software, not for people. Opened directly it is a wall of tags such as <STMTTRN> and <TRNAMT>, which is why double-clicking one usually launches the wrong program or shows nothing useful at all.
This converter reads the file the way accounting software does and lays the transactions out as a statement: one row per transaction with its posting date, payee, type, cheque number where present, the amount, and a running balance worked back from the closing balance the file declares. The result is an ordinary PDF you can print, file, or send to someone who does not have accounting software.
Both dialects are handled. OFX 1.x is SGML, where tags are never closed; OFX 2.x is XML. Quicken's QFX and QuickBooks' QBO are the same format with Intuit's extensions, and both are read here too.
How it works
- 1
Upload your OFX file
Drop in a .ofx, .qfx or .qbo file exported from your bank or downloaded from online banking. Nothing is sent to a third party.
- 2
We read every transaction
The file is parsed in full - posting dates, payees, memos, cheque numbers, amounts and the declared balances.
- 3
Download your PDF statement
You get a paginated statement with a running balance and credit, debit and net totals. Your files are removed from our servers after 72 hours.
What it handles
Reads OFX 1.x and 2.x
SGML and XML dialects both supported, so it works whether your bank exports the old or the new format.
QFX and QBO too
Quicken QFX and QuickBooks QBO files are Intuit flavours of OFX and open here as well.
Running balance
Worked back from the closing balance the file itself declares, so the final row matches your bank rather than a guess.
Deleted after 72 hours
Uploads and generated PDFs are removed from the server and the database once the window passes.
Frequently asked questions
- What is an OFX file?
- Open Financial Exchange is the format banks use to send transactions to accounting software. It carries the same data as a statement - dates, payees, amounts, balances - but as markup meant for a program to read rather than a person.
- Why does my OFX file look like gibberish when I open it?
- Because it is markup, not a document. Opening it in a text editor shows tags such as <STMTTRN> and <TRNAMT> around each value. Converting it to PDF lays those values out as a statement.
- Does this work with QFX and QBO files?
- Yes. QFX is Quicken's version of OFX and QBO is QuickBooks' version. Both are the same underlying format with Intuit-specific fields, and both are read here.
- Is the running balance accurate?
- It is derived from the closing ledger balance the file declares, working backwards through the transactions, so the last row equals your bank's stated balance. If the file carries no balance the column is left out rather than invented.
- How long do you keep my files?
- Uploaded OFX files and the PDFs generated from them are deleted from the server and the database 72 hours after conversion.
- Does this use my page allowance?
- Yes. Conversions are charged from the same daily free pages and subscription page allowance as the bank statement converter, so a plan covers both tools rather than each needing its own.
