Printing to PDF

Printing to PDF is very straightforward for either PC (running Windows) or Mac.

On PC


If you are on a PC running Windows 10 you can print to PDF directly but if you are using an older version of Windows you will need to install a free download to do it. There are lots around (just Google "print to PDF") - we use CutePDF on older PCs that we have and it works well. When you've installed the software you just select the CutePDFWriter as your printer and it will save it to whatever destination you specify.

On the off chance that you Have Adobe Acrobat (not the Reader) - you can also print directly to PDF but you can also select Email PDF. The latter will automatically start up your preferred email client with the file attached.

On Mac


There is nothing to do on Mac as the software required to "print to PDF" is part of the operating system. All you need to do is select the "print to PDF" option whenever you print.
