PDF?

Post by gpit11 »

I am currently writing drill for a band, and the director has asked me if there is a way to convert my sets to PDF format. I'm not quite sure why he needs this, as he has downloaded the demo of EnVision, but do you have any suggestions on how to do this? I downloaded a program called PrimoPDF, but it's looking like the file format is not supported by the program. Thanks!

Hi gpit11,

That's a great question. To get the drill as a PDF I like to use a little free program called CutePDF (http://www.cutepdf.com/). It's a great small program that installs itself on your computer as a virtual printer and allows you to print out to a PDF file. Once it's installed you just select it from your list of printers when you are ready to print and it will ask you where you want to save it.

As far as I know this is a Windows only program, but I believe that Mac's already have a built-in way to print to PDFs. If you cant find anything pre-installed on your Mac then I'm sure a quick internet search will satisfy your needs.
