Creating a PDF file from an excel document

Community Beginner ,
Sep 21, 2020 Sep 21, 2020

Hello,

We use Adobe acrobat XI standard.

However, it is not possible to create a PDF file from an Excel document.

 

Does someone know how we can fix this problem?

Are you aware that this version is outdated and not supported by Adobe any longer? It's also increasingly not compatible with the current operating systems, so problems are to be expected. However, if you let us know your exact version of Acrobat, Office and the OS, as well as what you tried to do and what the results are, we might have some suggestions for you.

Cannot you "Save as PDF" from the Excel file menu?

Please let us know what method you're using to create the PDF - there are quite a few ways.

My best,

Dave

I am confused by your reply, sorry. Office 2008 was a Mac only version. But you say you have Windows. If you have a CURRENT version of Office you need to get a current version of Acrobat. XI is dead for many years - 11.0.23 is final, yes.

Ok, your Office version is the latest, but your Acrobat version is far too old. Do you believe it is up to date?

If you want them to be compatible with each other, yes.
