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 edit a sentence

  • • Numbers in cells keep their right alignment as you edit. Formulas are not kept in a PDF, so totals must be updated by hand.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • The paragraph rewraps inside its own width. If it grows by a line, the text below moves down by exactly one line.
  • • Hyphenation and justified spacing follow the paragraph's existing look.

Questions people ask

+What if the new sentence is longer?

The paragraph rewraps and everything below it moves down evenly. If the page is full, the overflow continues on a new page.

+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.
