File types and storageYou can upload any file type to be stored in Google Docs, but you can convert only certain types of files to Google Docs format.
Things you need to Remember while uploading a file to Google Docs, please keep the following in mind:

• You can only upload and convert these file types:
  
  
  • For spreadsheets: .xls, .xlsx, .ods, .csv, .tsv, .txt, .tsb
  • For documents: .doc, .docx, .html, plain text (.txt), .rtf
  • For presentations: .ppt, .pps
• There are some file-size limits. See the size requirements for uploading and converting.
• Some of your original formatting may not be preserved.

Upload and Storage Limit:

Files that you store but don't convert can't be larger than 1 GB each. You get 1 GB of free storage for your Google Account, and you can purchase additional storage for $0.25 per GB.
Only stored files count towards the maximum limit. If you delete a file and empty trash, you get your storage back.
Finding your Stored Files:

After you upload a file which hasn't been converted to Google Docs format, you'll see it in all your regular views. You can also find it under Items by type > Files.

When you open one of these stored files on your Docs list, you can choose to see a preview of the file, share the file, print it, or download it to your desktop. You can also edit it on locally on your computer (for example, upload a photo, make changes using a photo editor) and then upload the new version of the file to Google Docs.

Important notes:

• You can share a stored file that hasn't been converted, but can't actually collaborate with someone on it because the file is incompatible with Google Docs format.
• Your storage quota includes plenty of bandwidth for ordinary use. If there's excessive bandwidth use, we may limit your access for a period of time.
