Can I save a worksheet as a picture?

Is there a way to save a worksheet as an image, ie. not as a spreadsheet
with formulas etc. but just as it looks when printed? If I could save it as
a PDF or as a JPEG file or something like that, that should do it. In the
Print dialog I see Microsoft XPS Document Writer as a printer option, so I
tried that and it saves the file as a *.xps file, which I can then open and
it does exactly what I wanted but when I emailed it (as a test) to myself it
doesn't allow me to open the attachment. I get the message "Your current
security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded." I think it
tries to use Internet Explorer to open the file. Is there another way to do
this?

My reason is that I am using the Excel drawing tools to create some images
which I would like to email to a friend as images, not as Excel files.

hi
have you tried coping the sheet and pasting into paint or similar. i've done
that quite a few times when writing work instructions and using the
spreadsheet as illistrations.

Thank you both for your help. I downloaded the CutePDF and it works great!
Exactly what I was looking for. Time to press the YES button.
