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 change a quantity
- • Numbers in cells keep their right alignment as you edit. Formulas are not kept in a PDF, so totals must be updated by hand.
- • Amounts in Microsoft Excel PDFs are right aligned, so a longer value grows to the left and the column stays straight.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Numbers keep their column alignment.
- • The PDF does not recalculate, so check the totals.
