Using the "Save as pdf" to convert an excel 2007 file

S

srd

I have an excel file that I would like to convert to pdf. When I use the
Save as pdf option in Excel 2007, the font has changed and is small and hard
to read. I have tried other file converters and the font does NOT change.
Any ideas?

I have also tried other files and it doesn't happen. Could the file be the
problem.

you might have
to define a "print
range(s)" that would
set a boundary for
printing data/values
only and exclude
empty cells.

well, all I can offer
is to try "landscape"
and disable "shrink
to fit" option.

perhaps as a test
you might want to
install another pdf
driver like "primo pdf".

then "print" your sheet(s)
with that driver to see
if the results are better.

the above is simply
a test to compare
microsoft's built in
pdf driver to that of
another.

I dont use the default Office 2007 pdf option, but have free pdf creator app
installed, when I tried this from an excel file the result was fine

Again, thanks for all the tips. I tried all of those things and have come to
the conclusion that it is Microsoft's pdf converter because using another
converter does change the original document formats.

perhaps, when sp3
is released at the
end of the month for
office,

the issue with pdf
will be addressed.
