Conversion Table Generator

Generate printable reference tables for Length, Weight, Temperature, and Volume conversions.

Last updated: 10/8/2026

Build a two-column reference table for one of four common conversions (miles to kilometres, Fahrenheit to Celsius, pounds to kilograms, inches to centimetres) over exactly the range and step you need. A one-page chart taped inside a cupboard or kept in a glovebox is often faster than a phone for recurring conversions such as oven temperatures or road-sign distances.

Values are rounded to two decimals. For engineering tolerances tighter than 0.01 unit, use the full-precision factors in the FAQ.

How It Works

Pick the table type, then a start value, end value, and step. The generator lists every value from start to end in increments of the step (up to 500 rows) and applies the fixed factor for that pair: 1 mi = 1.60934 km; °C = (°F − 32) × 5⁄9; 1 lb = 0.453592 kg; 1 in = 2.54 cm (exact). Converted values are rounded to two decimals.

Choosing a sensible range and step

Oven temperatures: Fahrenheit 250 to 500 in steps of 25 gives an 11-row chart covering every setting on a typical dial. Body weight: pounds 100 to 300 in steps of 5 gives 41 rows and fits on one printed page. Road distances: miles 5 to 100 in steps of 5 gives 20 rows. Sewing or woodworking: inches 0.125 to 12 in steps of 0.125 gives 96 rows (one per eighth of an inch).

If the range divided by the step exceeds 500 the generator asks you to widen the step; that limit keeps the page fast to render and print.

Worked example

Oven chart, 325 °F to 425 °F in steps of 50

325 °F:(325 − 32) × 5⁄9= 162.78 °C
375 °F:(375 − 32) × 5⁄9= 190.56 °C
425 °F:(425 − 32) × 5⁄9= 218.33 °C

Recipe conventions round these to 160 °C, 190 °C, and 220 °C. The table shows the exact conversion; round to the nearest 10 °C for a fan oven dial.

Tips & Best Practices

  • •Keep rows to roughly 40 to 50 for a single printed page at normal font size.
  • •Use a fractional step such as 0.5 or 0.25 for cooking and sewing charts; whole-number steps are enough for distances and body weight.
  • •Print with your browser's print dialog and choose "Save as PDF" if you want a file instead of paper.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the Fahrenheit table show negative Celsius values?

Because 0 °C equals 32 °F, any Fahrenheit value below 32 converts to a negative Celsius value. A table from 0 °F to 100 °F correctly runs from −17.78 °C to 37.78 °C.

Can I generate the reverse table, for example kilometres to miles?

Not directly; the four table types run in one direction. To read a kilometres-to-miles value, find the kilometre figure in the right-hand column of a miles table and read the left-hand column. For a single reverse conversion use the Unit Converter.

Are the conversion factors exact?

Inches to centimetres (2.54) and the Fahrenheit formula are exact definitions. The mile (1.609344 km) and pound (0.45359237 kg) are also exact, and the generator uses six-significant-figure versions that agree with the exact values to within 0.0003%.
