Exporting an Excel file as PDF from the MS app, it shows as 0kb with a timestamp of 55 years ago.
I Walter,
2 years on, I have encountered a new problem.
Suddenly I cannot export an excel document as a pdf. It exports as zero mb with a time stamp of 55 years ago!
I tried to reload the app...

I don't seem to be able to attach or paste anywhere! Quite simply I have a small excel file of about 135kb. I try to export as a pdf and I see the pdf title. But zero content and a timestamp of 55 years ago!
I am signed into excel as a different user to Dropbox. Although this has never been an issue before. I tried to delete Dropbox and reload again. This didn't work

Hi Samuelharvest, could you describe the steps you're taking to export the file?
How are you exporting it as a PDF file?
Are you following these steps in this article to export the Excel file to your device first?

Hi,
I have followed the steps, more or less, on my iPad. I am able to save an excel document as a pdf into the files section on my device. I can then export it to Dropbox and it works.
I am still unable to export an excel document as a pdf to another folder within Dropbox. As described previously in the thread
