Tips for a tidy PDF
- Wide tables print best in landscape orientation: set it in the page setup of the spreadsheet before you convert it.
- Hide helper columns and rows you don't want to share; set a print area if only part of a sheet matters.
- To combine several spreadsheets, or a spreadsheet and other documents, into one PDF, use the PDF Combiner.
