How Microsoft Excel writes PDFs

  • • Cells become positioned text with grid lines drawn around them.
  • • Numbers are right aligned inside their cells.
  • • Each sheet area becomes one or more pages.

What that means when you add a table column

  • • Numbers in cells keep their right alignment as you edit. Formulas are not kept in a PDF, so totals must be updated by hand.
  • • Microsoft Excel tables keep their drawn borders; new or removed rows follow them.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • The new column's borders follow the table's own.
  • • Columns share the table's width, so check that long values still fit.

Questions people ask

+Can I delete a column?

Yes. Open the delete menu on a cell and choose Delete this column.

+Is it better to edit in Microsoft Excel?

If you have the original Microsoft Excel file and a lot to change, yes. For quick changes to the PDF itself, editing the PDF is faster and keeps it exactly as sent.
