Converting from Excel to Adobe PDF

I have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional and Windows XP. The excel worksheet is on a landscape page and reduced to say 65%. It has wording on the left side that stretches through five cells. Some of the wording gets cut off. Maybe the last letter gets cut off in half, but not all the words in different cells get cut off. Some of the wording that does not get off go beyond the cells that do get cut off. This happens on some worksheets. The next worksheet can have the same page setup and nothing happens. One of the solutions we have found is that we have to add 3 spaces to the last word of the cells that is being cut off. That seems to fix the problem. Another is that we print the page in excel (works perfect) and then e-fax the page to ourselves and inserted in the document. But doing this last things keeps us from printing a final version for the client, since there is a difference. Any solutions that could solve this?

Change your printer to the Adobe PDF printer and then set the cell sizes in Excel. This is just the normal Excel adjustment to the printer.

  • Cannot convert from excel to adobe (using acrobat 8 standard)

    Document will begin conversion and then just get stuck forever in an unending loop.  When I cancel the program (excel) get a prompt that says that Acrobat was unable to complet PDF process!!!  Help!!!

    Open the file in Excel. Then go to the FILE menu and select print. Chose the Adobe PDF printer and see if you get a PDF -- all of the other Acrobat processes depend on this printing process. If not, report what error messages you get. I suspect that you have deactivated AcroTray.exe that is a required part of the conversion part. If you like to test the latter, use the print-to-file option in the printer dialog, then open the file in Distiller to complete the process. The latter should either give you a PDF or a mess of error messages telling you why not.

    It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
    The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this.

  • Distorted Files when converting from Excel to PDF

    Hello,
    I work in IT and I have an annoying issue that when someone using Excel 2007 clicks on the acrobat tab to create a PDF from excel. The finished PDF file is distorted, and will not show the files as they should be. Part of the graph will be missing. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Acrobat Pro X, the only thing that happened was that when creating a new user, the new user is able to create a perfect excel to PDF file with no issue, but the original user with the issue still has the same problem. Is there a setting that will fix this? 

    Hi,
    Please share your file if possible so that I can look into the problem. Please use below link:

  • Converting from Excel and saving embedded links

    I'm using Microsoft Office Excel 2003, sp3 and Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional (7.0.9). I have some Excel pages that have embedded hyperlinks in them linking to other internal web pages. When I print to "Adobe PDF" it shows the links underlined, but they're not actual links, rather underlined text. I used to be able to do this but I'm not sure if a patch was applied that made this not work. Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thank you,
    Clyde Porpid

    Ok.. Here's the last thing I recieved from Microsoft. Apparently it's an Adobe issue.
    MESSAGE:
    ********************** The message for you follows ************************ Good afternoon Clyde ,
    It has been my pleasure to work with you on your Microsoft Excel 2003 issue. Based on our last conversation I am closing your case at this time. If you find that your issue has not been fully resolved, please notify me as soon as possible, and I will reopen it.
    As I close this issue let me assure you that your opinions are very important. If you have any comments regarding the service you received from Microsoft Enterprise Platforms Support regarding this issue. Please let me or my manager, Ken XXXX ([email protected]), know if there is anything that we can address to ensure your satisfaction with the overall service I provided.
    Here is a summary of the key points of the case for your records.
    Action:
    Using the Adobe Professional installed Addin to convert Excel files to PDF format.
    Result:
    The resultant PDF file does not contain the expected Hyperlink as entered in the Excel file.
    Cause:
    The Adobe converter uses the Adobe Print Driver to convert files and within this uses OCR technology to produce the PDF. This does not allow the Adobe application to see the underlying HTTP URL and such only reads the Text Displayed.
    Resolution:
    Alteration of the information in the page to be a HTTP URL will correct the issue. Use of Office 2007 and the Save As PDF functionality produces the expected output as well. All versions of the Adobe Print Driver through 8 produce the same results.

  • Excel to Adobe PDF page size problems

    I am using Excel 2007 on a Windows XP setup with Acrobat 9.0 PDFM OfficeAddin.  I want to convert my Excel sheets to 8.5"x11" size pages, but they come out as approx. 22"x30" pages.  I've checked the page size setting in Excel and the Adobe preference settings and they are both set for 8.5x11, but the pdf page size is always much larger!  What is causing this and what do I need to do to get 8.5x11 size pdf pages?
    Thanks you for your help. I've pulled out most of my hair by now!

  • What is the best way to convert from PowerPoint 2007 to PDF?

    Greetings people,
    In PowerPoint 2007 I know you can convert to a PDF by way of printing, save as or from the Adobe menu. However, these produce different results.
    Is there a reason for this? Can settings be changed to ensure the results are the same regardless of what method is used?
    Is there a rule of thumb on which method is best?
    Thank you, Jean

    A lot depends on what you are after. If you use the printer, you will likely need to use a custom page setting to fill out the page properly and not leave spaces on the sides. I think the standard PPT page is 8.5X10, not 11. PDF Maker (or the Save As Adobe PDF) in PPT sets the size appropriately when I have used it. PDF Maker also adds links and such as appropriate, but the printer does not. Your other option is to use the Save As PDF or XPS which is the MS conversion.
    When I tested, the print did go to an 8.5X11 with a border to fit on the page. The other three techniques created the PDF in the same page size as the PPT. The PDF maker and Acrobat menu methods gave the same results, but the file was about 2X the size of the MS method. I did not check the properties that created this different size, but you would have to look at the different options for the creation and see how they compare. The Adobe approach can be kept small also, but may not have used the same options as the MS approach.
    If there were links, then the print will not embed these links and bookmarks, but the other techniques will. Maybe that helps some.

  • Create one pdf from excel, word, and pdf files

    I'm trying to create a single document to distribute (digitally and printable) for a meeting.
    And I'm an Acrobat Pro beginner. :-(
    The files to be included are in pdf, MS Word and MS Excel.
    What is the best way to do this?
    I don't know if I use Portfolio which I tried but then each file apparently needs to be Extracted to be viewed. Not what I want. I want series of files separated by a heading.
    Maybe I need to convert all files first to pdf and then combine in one pdf file but maybe there is a simpler way.
    Appreciate any tips from the experts.
    Thank you.

  • Copy and paste from excel to adobe form

    Hi everyone,
    a customer in a project based on WDJ + Adobe Interactive Form asks us the ability to copy areas of data (numeric and alphanumeric) from an Excel Spreadsheet (set of contiguous rows and columns), and paste them into a text field free PDF, preserving the formatting (ie the structure of rows and columns, font and size).
    Personally I think it is something not feasible unless a development at hoc.cosa do you think?
    Any advice is very welcome.
    Regards,
    Mirco

    Reading the documentation XFA at http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/xml/xfa_spec_3_1.pdf (richtext reference) we understand that you can make the cut & paste from Word or, better still from a RTF. But in this case from the Excel table information is lost as it is aligned in a single line.
    The only way I think is to define a common layout to Excel and Adobe and use tables dynamically in the form
    I do not think this is a limitation of the SAP solution!
    regards,
    Mirco

  • How to stop Nitro file converter from altering all Adobe files

    I recently wanted to convert a word document to PDF and downloaded a free version of the program Nitro but as the only free part of the downloaded program was to look at it as it then wanted me to purchase the full program before I could use it so I deleted from my computer. But before it finished uninstalling itself it altered all the Adobe files and documents I had on my computer also it now alters the file type of any Adobe file or document sent to me as an email attachment.  How can I stop it? would taking the manufacturer to court sort them out? If anyone has any ideas of how to prevent or alter what has happened send to email address [email protected]

    Hi Sara
    To a point what you said to resolve the problem worked but what the Nitro programme did was convert all my Adobe documents and files into a pdf that can only be opened by a Word programme.  If I click on the icon which used to be an Adobe file which has now become a form of greyed out Word icon it automatically opens M/S Word but cannot read it as it’s a pdf file.
    Do you know of any way I can convert them back to an adobe readable file?
    Many thanks
