Excel to PDF printing problem.

[Leeinsa]

I have an excel spreadsheet which is 2 pages long by 1 page wide. I have used the margin tools and the fit to 2 x 1 page tools to make it fit as I need it. When I print to a conventional printer it comes out fine, However when i print to a PDF writer (Roynasoft PDF Printer) each excel cell (for the entire worksheet even the empty ones) is printed to a separate pdf page creating a PDF document of hundreds of thousands of pages (each showing a single cell).

I am using office 2007 on a windows vista machine, but have tried using aN XP machine (still office 2007) and the same thing happens.

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this behaviour? Any thoughts or help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Lee.

I'd get in touch with Ronyasoft. Their PDF printer seems to be pretty new.

Thanks for the reply Andrew. I have fired an email off to Ronyasoft, but wondered if anyone hd seen this problem here.

Thanks again,

Lee.

You could try PrimoPDF http://www.primopdf.com/index.aspx to see if you get the same.

Thanks VoG, I'll try that and post back results later.

Congratulations VoG & Andrew,

You were spot on, It was the actual Ronyasoft software causing the problem. I installed the primoPDF software and is is well in the world again.

Many thanks to all of you,

Lee.

There's also an add-in from microsoft that lets you save as pdf and it works in all office 2007 apps

once on your pc, you save an excel file by saving as PDF then click publish, and you get a nice pdf to print
