IIRC the Drive API does not support those conversion options. The way forward would be for an xlsx parsing JS library to convert it into CSV or a stream of Javascript objects. I didn't find any GPL-compatible library last time I checked. See https://developers.google.com/drive/web/manage-downloads https://developers.google.com/drive/web/manage-downloads for a list of export format possibilities. For spreadsheets, the only options are xlsx, odt and pdf.

    Oh, I didn't read the whole thread, I was just thinking about my own experience with `cat gdrive/something` showing me a lot of unreadable bytes when it could show an iframe.
