Save/Email PDF

app-savetopdfThis wizard lets you save an Adobe PDF copy of the Excel workbook, and optionally email it to someone. Email options include SMTP email or Google Gmail.

Filename

Same File Name (+ Date) – save the PDF to the same name as the original workbook, but with a date and PDF extension instead of the XLSX extension.

Filename – save the PDF to a specific filename. A ‘.pdf’ extension will be added if you do not include it.
