Convert Excel file to PDF - Always in Landscape

Posted on by pmbeaudoin

I use the basic Convert selected file to PDF to produce PDF file from Excel Worksheets. Even if Page Layout is well configured in the Excel file (in Portrait orientation), the converted pdf is always in Landscape. Is there a way to avoid this ?

Thanks a lot !

Hi @pmbeaudoin,

Could you please share a screenshot of your flow's configuration?

Further, could you please show a screenshot of your issue?

I have made a test and the issue is confirmed on my side. No matter which orientation layout you set within your Excel file, the converted pdf file is always in Landscape orientation.

I afraid that there is no way to avoid this in Microsoft Flow currently, if you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

Best regards,

I finally managed to make it work with the use of Plumsail documents. It's really sad to have to use an expensive third party (though not as expensive as Muhimbi, which price is really prohibitive for a simple user) for such a simple task like outputting a file in pdf as it was formatted in Excel.
