You're using Excel Interop to convert Excel to PDF it requires a lot such as the right version of MS Excel must be installed and right system of your machine. Not clear about your exception but you can try some other solution provided by 3rd party library. This definitely saves your time. Remember to reference the dll of C# Excel component befor you can run the code // load Excel file Workbook workbook = new Workbook(); workbook.LoadFromFile(D:\test.xlsx); // Set PDF template PdfDocument pdfDocument = new PdfDocument(); pdfDocument.PageSettings.Orientation = PdfPageOrientation.Landscape; pdfDocument.PageSettings.Width = 970; pdfDocument.PageSettings.Height = 850; //Convert Excel to PDF using the template above PdfConverter pdfConverter = new PdfConverter(workbook); PdfConverterSettings settings = new PdfConverterSettings(); settings.TemplateDocument = pdfDocument; pdfDocument = pdfConverter.Convert(settings); // Save and preview PDF pdfDocument.SaveToFile(sample.pdf);

Hey! Did you check if it's a permission issue? It's possible that you are trying to save the file to a location and .NET doesn't have the permissions to write to that location.
