Parameters
- type
Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlFixedFormatType
One of the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlFixedFormatType values that specifies whether to save the workbook in PDF or XPS format.
- filename

The full path of the new PDF or XPS file. If you omit this parameter, Excel saves the file in the current folder.
- quality
Type: System.Object
One of the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlFixedFormatQuality values that specifies the quality of the exported file.
- includeDocProperties
Type: System.Object
true to include document properties in the exported file; otherwise, false.
- ignorePrintAreas
Type: System.Object
true to ignore any print areas set when exporting; otherwise, false.
- from
Type: System.Object
The number of the page at which to start exporting. If this argument is omitted, exporting starts at the first page.
- to
Type: System.Object
The number of the last page to export. If this argument is omitted, exporting ends with the last page.
- openAfterPublish
Type: System.Object
true to display the file in the viewer immediately; otherwise, false.
- fixedFormatExtClassPtr
Type: System.Object
A pointer to an implementation of the IMsoDocExporter interface that enables the workbook to be saved in a different fixed format. For more information, see Extending the Office (2007) Fixed-Format Export Feature.
Remarks
This method also supports initializing an add-in to export a file to a fixed-format file. For example, Excel will perform file format conversion if the converters are present. The conversion is usually initiated by the user.
Examples
The following code example saves the content of the worksheet Sheet1 in PDF format, up to the first four pages (ignoring print areas). The PDF file is saved to the specified file path and file name using the standard quality resolution. The file includes the workbook properties. To run this code example, your workbook must include a sheet named Sheet1 with some data.
This example is for a document-level customization.
