Overview
This article will show you how to convert an Excel file into a PDF. PDFs will perserve the layout of the page, which makes saving and sharing documents as PDFs good practice.
Steps
Converting a Word document to PDF is different depending on what version of Excel is being used. On new versions (2016 and Microsoft 365), users can select File > Save as Adobe PDF (if Adobe Reader is installed). However, if that option does not appear, the steps below should work with any version of Excel.
- In Microsoft Excel, click File > Save As. File is located in the upper-left of the software.
- Choose a location to save your PDF. This process is the same as it is when saving the Excel file. In this example, I'll select Desktop.
- Use the drop-down arrow and choose PDF (*.pdf).
- Click Save
