    Default Generating PDF from XLS

    Hi,

    I am trying to generate PDF document from an XLS using Distiller API.
    In Excel, I have set the page size as A4. However, the generated PDF is displayed in Letter size page. Due to this, I am losing the page level formatting.

    When I try to convert a Word doc with page size as A4, it is correctly getting converted. However, with any excel sheet, I am facing the same problem (even without any formatting, header, footers)

    Can anyone suggest why this is happening?

    Thanks,

    Default Re: Generating PDF from XLS

    Distiller API only supports Postscript->PDF conversion. It doesn't know anything about Excel or Word, etc.

    Whatever you are doing to automate those applications is at fault.
