Advanced Excel to PDF5.0

Advanced Excel To PDF enables you to create PDF documents from Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. This is an approachable software application that features advanced options, such as encryption and user permissions.It's wrapped in a user-friendly interface based on a large window with two panes, where you can put XLS and XLSX-formatted files in the task list to prepare them for conversion, as well as tinker with output settings.

Convert XLS and XLSX files in bulk

Batch processing is supported, so you can convert multiple Excel files at the same time to speed up the job overall. It's possible to select the destination folder for the new PDFs, remove an item from the list if you change your mind, or clear the entire queue to start the project from scratch.

Configure PDF metadata, security, and general settings

As far as advanced settings are concerned, you can enter the PDF title, subject, author and keywords, specify a user and owner password, manage user permissions (content copying or extraction, form filling, signing, commenting, document modifications, printing) and pick the encryption level (40-bit or 128-bit RC4). Additional options revolve around the page layout and mode, document compression (flat or LZW), image compression (flat, JPEG, automatic), JPEG quality, PDF version compatibility (1.3, 1.4, 1.5) and alternate EMF rendering.

Performance results and observations

The tool didn't put a strain on the overall performance of the machine in our tests, using low CPU and RAM. It carried out conversion jobs rapidly while remaining light on system resources, and delivers decent conversion results. Although this is not mentioned by the developer, it needs Microsoft Excel installed in order to successfully convert files.

Finally

To sum it up, Advanced Excel To PDF offers a simple solution for converting XLS and XLSX spreadsheets into PDF format. However, it needs Microsoft Excel installed and the trial allows only one launch.
