I'm running Word for Mac 2011 on an intel iMac. I've just created a table in Excel and want to save it as a PDF so I can insert it into a Word document. Is there a way just to save the table rather than the entire worksheet?

I tried copy and paste but it doesn't preserve my Excel formatting. I searched online and in Excel help, but couldn't find anything applicable.
 
Select your table, choose "Save as" from the File menu, choose where you want the file to go, select PDF from the Format drop-down menu, below that choose what you want to save (workbook, sheet, or selection - choose selection) and save.

Another method is using the Print Command - PDF (look in the lower left) and choose Save to PDF.
