I assume you're using XL04, since XL08 removed the Excel Print Preview
view:

Print Preview does its best to display what it thinks the print driver
will send to the printer. Sometimes drivers give "bad" info (or else XL
misinterprets it - doesn't really matter).

Make sure your print driver is updated.

If that doesn't fix things, changing the Print Quality setting (in the
Page Setup dialog's Page pane) often works.

In fact, when I click Print and then Preview (in the Print menu pop-up), the
text shows up center aligned AND the file ending as .pdf--even though this
isn't a PDF file.<br>

When you choose Preview in a Mac OS X Print dialog, the OS creates a PDF
file and displays in in the Preview app. That's why you see .pdf as the
extension.
