Convert an XLSX workbook to PDF

Use jetformat excel to-pdf to convert an XLSX workbook to PDF.

By Jetformat

Visible worksheets are converted in workbook order into one PDF. A sheet can occupy multiple pages, and hidden sheets are skipped.

Steps

  1. Start with a local XLSX. Replace the sample paths and identifiers with your own.
  2. Run the command below. Save to a new output path so the source remains available for comparison.
  3. Check the result as described below before using it in another job.
jetformat excel to-pdf workbook.xlsx -o workbook.pdf

Options for this task

Option Meaning
--font-dir Extra font directory; may be repeated
--output Output PDF path; defaults to the input basename

Check the result

Run pdf info for the actual page count and review formula totals and page breaks in the output.

Notes and limits

This operation uses page-based credits. Review the billing guide before processing a large document.

The examples keep the original file. Add --force only when you intend to overwrite an existing output. Run jetformat excel to-pdf --help to compare options with your installed version.

See the excel command reference for the surrounding workflow.
