A client brought in a pdf that needs to be printed on larger paper (13 x 19). So I am exporting the pages to pdf so I can do some adjustment to layout in indesign. The problem is when I create a pdf from Excel (latest version on Mac) the different tabs (worksheets?) are split into multiple pages, so I cant just have one page for each tab. Numbers has a nice feature where it just automatically makes it fit on one page, but I cant find that option with excel. I need to use excel as it does not show the cells, whereas numbers shows the cells in the pdf.

Anyone have an idea how I can get around this? I tried just making a huge sheet size (30" x 30", thinking it would fit that way, but it does the same thing. There must be an easy way of doing this that I am missing?

Did you select the option to fit everything onto one page?

I have tried that, with no luck.

I can get rid of the cells in numbers, so just going to use that. Thanks for your help.
