Whilst you can easily save an Excel file to several formats including PDF by using the standard 'Save As' dialog, surprisingly, .jpg is not in the list. Luckily, there exist a handful of different ways to convert Excel to JPEG, both desktop and online, and in a moment you will learn the most useful ones.

Convert Excel to JPG by using Print Screen feature

It is the most popular technique to convert the currently visible on-screen part of your Excel sheet to JPG or any other image format. Here's how:

1. Zoom in or out the worksheet so that all data of interest is visible on the screen.
2. Press the PrtSc key on your keyboard while holding the Alt key.
3. Open a graphics editor of your choosing, Microsoft Paint works just fine for this purpose.
4. Paste the copied screen by clicking the Paste button or pressing the Ctrl + V shortcut.
5. Click the blue drop down arrow in the upper left corner of the Paint window, and then click Save As to save the pasted image. Or, simply press Ctrl + S (a shortcut to save a file that works in most programs).
6. In the Save as window, type the desired file name, and choose one of the following image formats:
   • JPEG (.jpg) - right choice for complex pictures and photos.
   • GIF - great for creating low-resolution images, which is best suited for simple drawings.
   • PNG - allows creating low-resolution files that load quickly but look crisp and beautiful, it's suitable for almost anything.
7. Click Save and you are done!

Here's what my sample Excel table exported to Paint looks like:

Convert .xls to .jpg (.xlsx to .jpg) with Snipping Tool

It is another amazingly simple way to get an image of your Excel sheet that very few people know about. Snipping Tool is specially designed to take a snapshot of the screen and is included with all modern versions of Windows, from Windows 7 to Windows 10.

Unlike the Print Screen feature, Snipping Tool gives you the following choices as to what to capture:

• Free-form snip - you can draw any shape on the screen and only that part of your Excel sheet will be included in an image.
• Rectangular snip - the default option that captures rectangular snips.
• Window snip - allows capturing a dialog box or a resized Excel window.
• Full-screen snip - captures the entire screen, the same as Print Screen.

Mac mojave 10 14. To locate Snipping Tool on your computer, click the Start button, type 'snipping tool' in the search box, and then click on Snipping Tool in the list of results. If you don't want to capture a snip immediately, click the Minimize button to send it to the task bar, switch to Excel and open the spreadsheet of interest.

To convert an Excel sheet to JPG (or another image format), perform the 3 quick steps outlined below:

1. Choose what kind of snip you want to capture. For this, click the little arrow next to the Mode button (in older versions, click the arrow next to New), and select one of the options described above.
   
2. Select the area of your sheet that you want to capture. This will immediately copy the selected area to the Snipping Tool window.
3. Click the Save button, type the file name, choose your preferred image format (.jpg, .png and .gif are supported) and click OK. That's all there is to it!

Save Excel data as image (.jpg, .png or .gif)

Whatever simple and straightforward the previous methods are, they have one significant limitation - they can only capture the part of a worksheet that is visible on the screen. In some situations, zooming out might help, but not when it comes to capturing a really big table that contains tens or thousands of rows. To get around this limitation, use the good old copy/paste technique, which allows copying any part of an Excel sheet including beyond the scroll areas, and then pasting the copied contents to wherever you want.

To save your Excel worksheet as a .jpg image, perform the following steps:

1. Select a table, chart, shape or any other Excel data that you want to save as an image.
   Tip. To select a big table, select the first cell and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to extend the selection of the last used cell.
2. Press Ctrl + C to copy the selection to the clipboard.

   Alternatively, on the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click the little arrow next to Copy, and then click Copy as Picture…
   Fonelab data retriever 1 0 2018.

   This will give you the choice of whether to save the copied data As shown on screen or As shown when printed:
   

3. Open Microsoft Paint or any other graphics editor.
4. Press Ctrl + V to paste the copied data.
5. Save the newly created file as GPEG, GIF or PNG image. Done!

Visually, an Excel table saved as an image is indistinguishable from the original one. If you copy the image back to Excel, it's almost impossible to spot the difference unless you try selecting the data :)

Export Excel to JPG with Camera tool

One more way to quickly take a snapshot of your Excel data is using the Camera tool. A really cool feature of Excel Camera is that it creates a dynamic image that syncs with the original dataset and gets updated whenever the original data changes.

In order to use the Camera tool, you must add it to the ribbon or Quick Access Toolbar manually because it does not show up by default. To have it done, perform these steps:

• Click the small drop-down button in the upper-left corner of your Excel and select More Commands…. This will open the Options dialog box.
• On the right pane, under Choose commands from, select Commands Not in the Ribbon.
• Scroll down the list until you find the Camera command, select it and click the Add button to move it to the right-hand section.
• Click OK.

Now, you have the Camera button on the Quick Access Toolbar:

To save an Excel table as image using Camera, just do the following:

1. Select a range of cells you want to capture. To make a photo of a chart, select the cells surrounding it.
2. Click on the Camera
3. Click anywhere in the worksheet where you want to place a snapshot. Bingo!

Now, you can make the image bigger or smaller by dragging the sizing handles. Or, you can apply different Picture Styles by using the Picture Tools tab that appears as soon as you select the image. For example:

When you are happy with the image design, you can export the Excel camera output to anywhere. For this, simply select the picture and press Ctrl + C to copy it (or right-click and then click Copy). After that, open another application, say Paint, Word or PowerPoint, and press Ctrl + V to paste the copied image. Or, you can assemble bits from several worksheets onto one page, and then save it as image by using any of the methods described above. Just remember that only a linked picture on the sheet is 'live'. When copied outside of Excel, it becomes a regular image and it won't update when the original data in the worksheet changes.

  This is the longest solution I've ever seen for this. If you simply wanna include all the sheets from your .xlsx file, just hold down CTRL, select the first one, add a hold down shift and select the last one in the range, they will look selected (a little whiter). After your selection, you can depress the keys and go File > Save as. and select .pdf from the drop-down menu.
