    Excel background is black


    It seems like I (I don't know how) changed some I don't have problems in any other office apps

    the table the weird thing is, that

    1. If I save it as a pdf there is a completely white background (the borders non existent or mby white) and grey text saved as pdf
    2. By formatting the cells differently I can change that pic of the table pic of the table saved as pdf

    It seems like I (I don't know how) changed some standardised formatting and now it looks like this. I don't have problems in any other office apps. Thanks for any help!
