What is the PDF Creator for Excel
It is an Excel add-in app that allows you to easily convert diagrams and ranges of cells into PDF format.
The underlying PDF generation work is still done by "Microsoft Print to PDF". What the app does is define a custom paper size before sending the work to the printer.
Why do you need it
It’s easy to convert an Excel diagram to a PDF file. If you do this frequently, you may already notice that when a large diagram is scaled down to meet a predefined paper size, distortions occur.
PDF Creator for Excel avoids distortions by defining the custom paper size according to the size of the diagram.
