About CSV and PDF

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is plain tabular data with no formulas, formatting, or multiple sheets — just rows and columns separated by commas.

PDF (Portable Document Format) is a fixed-layout format designed for consistent viewing and printing across any device — built for final distribution, not for continued editing.

What to expect: The PDF output is fixed-layout and built for viewing or printing, not further editing — ideal for sharing a finished version.
