Question

Cannot convert large excel files into pdf

I know I can do it directly through excel, though for my use case I would really like to use Acrobat to convert excel files of over 6MB and over 100 tabs into pdf in a single step. Unfortunatelly, I was keep getting an error message that file is too large or too complex.

 

Is there any known performance limitation regarding file size or sheet number?

 

Thank you

Hi @Theodore K 

 

You can use paid version of Acrobat DC to achieve the same. 

 Use the Create PDF tool in Acrobat DC
  1. Open Acrobat DC. Click Tools, and then click the Create PDF tool to open it. ...
  2. Select the file, and click Open. Acrobat displays a preview of your file. ...
  3. Click Create. Acrobat creates the PDF file, saving it in the same location as the original file.

Hi Ria,

 

The problem I encounteered was during my 7 day trial of Acrobat DC Pro, when I was unable to turn to pdf excel files of 6 MB and over 100 tabs. Your support team didn't manage to provide an answer for this malfunction.

 

Thank you
