02Questions

Common questions

Are numbers stored as numbers?

Yes, when a cell holds a plain number. Codes with leading zeros, dates and amounts with currency signs stay as text.

What about scanned PDFs?

Pages that are pictures of text are read with OCR (text recognition), so you still get text you can edit.
