Default excel to pdf taking too long in 2007

In excel 2007 we can directly convert XL file into PDF format... which is
good... but this is taking too long to conver it.

I have approx 33 worksheets in a workbook and when I save as PDF it takes
approx 10-15 mins to generate PDF file? I am wondering is there any solution
to this issue??

I am gonna add another 70 worksheets to my workbook and it would be around
100 and i am worried when I do that it will take ages to generate PDF...

any advise on this would be highly appreciated.

thanks!!

Lots of variables involved in creating a .pdf file; things like file size,
complexity and 'power' of the system doing the work.

You could buy a copy of Acrobat, runs from around $300 to $450 depending on
the version. But for me, I've actually found that the pdf creator add-in for
Excel 2007 is faster than using Acrobat.

You could also look into some of the free .pdf creating applications
available on the internet, just do a web search for 'free pdf file converter'
and give one or two a try.
