Exporting to Other Document Formats
You can share your Numbers spreadsheets across different platforms by exporting
them to a file in Excel, PDF, or comma-separated values (CSV) format.
To export a spreadsheet to another file format:
1 Choose File > Export.
2 Choose a document format.
PDF: PDF files can be created using an image quality of good, better, or best. They can
be viewed or printed in Preview, viewed or printed in Safari, and edited with a PDF
application. Choose All Sheets from the Layout pop-up menu to create a PDF that
shows each sheet on a separate page. Choose Current Sheet from the Layout pop-up
menu to create a paginated PDF of the selected sheet.
Excel: These files can be opened and edited in Microsoft Excel on a Mac OS X computer
or on a Windows computer. Each table is converted to an Excel worksheet, and all other
objects are placed on separate worksheets if there’s more than one table. If you don’t
want a summary worksheet included for multi-worksheet exports, select “Never include
a summary worksheet” in the export dialog. Some of the formula calculations may
differ in Excel.
CSV: Many spreadsheet applications can open a file in CSV format. In a CSV file, cell
values in each row are separated using a comma, and rows are separated using an end-
of-line character. Each table is placed in its own CSV file, and all the files are placed in a
folder. No graphics are exported. The last calculated values are exported.
