Hi,
Copy as PDF does't work any more in Numbers 3.6 and El Capitan 10.11.1? Anyone else having the same issue or know what could be done to fix it?
Further more, Numbers cannot autosave any more and will not quit. Found another unanswered thread about this issue.
MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)
I am not familiar with the "Copy and pdf".
you can always select items on a Numbers sheet, copy, then open the application Preview and select the menu item "File > New From Clipboard" or
in Numbers, select the menu item "File > Print", then click the button "Print", then use the PDF button (bottom left):

Hi Wayne,
By holding the ctrl-key while activating a graph, the option of copy to PDF pops up, here shown as "Kopier som PDF". The result is shown as the little graph to the right. That was a very neat function for freezing status etc.
Thanks for respond.

I had never used that feature before. I tried it with El Capitan and Numbers 3.6 and it worked. I used the Copy to PDF command then pasted the result into the same document and it worked (as far as I can tell).
When I right click on a chart I see the option:
In you post you show the option. SO... what is the problem?
With several features broken at the same time for no apparent reason and with no known fixes, the best solution might be to delete Numbers then re-download it from the App store.
Ok. Thanks a lot. My problem is that it doesn´t work anymore (the screenshot was from when it worked) :-( So, my Number has gone soure on me :-) I also cannot quit the app, but that is the issue in another Apple Support tread about "cannot autosave".
I therefor wonder if anyone else have experienced the same issue(s) and maybe has found a solution.

I have not experienced these issues but I stated what I, personally, would do next (assuming rebooting my computer didn't fix it).
force quit Numbers using the menu item " > Force Quit …" select Numbers from the Menu, then click Force quote. Now restart your computer.
Check and see if the a new document will allow you to copy a pdf from the context menu, then open your document and see if the copy pdf is there. If it is not then, perhaps, your document is corrupt in some way. I would suggest, copying the content of the document (one item at a time) to a new document. check that the contextual menu is there each step after the chart is in the new document.
Hi. I´ve now done what both of you suggested. Forced Number to quit and restartet the computer. Copy to PDF worked again, but I´ve lost all entries since the hickup started. I then deleted the whole app and reinstalled from Appstore. The program seem to work fine. Hope it doesn´t happen again. Thanks guys.
