Q: how to print selected cells in numbers

Does anyone know how to print selected cells in a Numbers spreadsheet, rather than printing the entire sheet?

 

Also, how to save the selected cells as a pdf file without saving the irrelevant cells?

Jan,

 

The two questions use the same basic answer. In OS X, printing an Object Selection is easily handled in Preview.app, and the native file type there is PDF.

 

Here's the procedure:

 

Select the cell range in Numbers and Command-C to copy it to the Clipboard

 

Launch or switch to Preview.app

 

Command-N to create a PDF file from the Clipboard content

 

Command-P to Print

 

Command-S to save the PDF file

 

Regards,

 

Jerry

    Sorry we've all managed somehow to "miss the point."

     

    I would guess there are many Numbers users who are generally satisfied and realize no app is perfect and tailored just for them. Check out the templates for examples of how to take advantage of the unique design. And if you want to give feedback to Apple simply choose Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback in your menu.

    Hi Jumpsystems,

    Numbers can't do what we want!

    Have you tried SG's suggestion?

    Highly recommend checking out the templates as they contain many good ideas on how to get the most out of Numbers

    Please reply with what you want to do. Numbers is not Excel. Numbers is table-based. You may find that several small tables will work for you.

     

    Regards,

    Ian.
