Happy Mardi Gras (a few days late)
For those of us that work with students at the student computers, we often get asked to help a student with some aspect of using the Dietary Analysis program (on computers LIB008-LIB010). The primary question we get is how to 'save' their reports to a pdf document. Here are the basic steps.
Note: a pdf is an electronic printout so the trick is that we are printing the document to a pdf.
1. Student completes the data input and chooses to print the reports.
2. Select the PrimoPDF printer.
3. When the interactive window comes up, leave the SaveAs selection to Ask When Creating PDF
4. Click on the Create PDF button
4. The student will be prompted to enter the filename and point at the drive or folder in which to save the document, click on the Save button. This creates the file and saves it to the drive and folder you selected.
5. The file is now ready to upload to the instructor.
