Save, Email, Fax Topic As PDF

Post by Ranch Dog »

Occasionally, I find a topic I would like to save as a file and have finally found a mod that takes care of this need. It also adds the ability to email or fax the topic. Using the latter two options requires a few seconds to register for the service and respond to an activation email. There is no risk to using either of these methods of sharing a topic and it can be quite handy.

I use a program called Nitro Pro 8 which is pretty inexpensive and also allows one to convert a PDF to Word, Excel etc as well as sign and edit existing PDF files.

That's pretty handy. I have been using a print to pdf software but this sounds nice if it is integrated.

It does a good job. Basically you could use the print control button right next to it and then use a pdf "printer" to do the same thing. If you don't have a printer such as when you are accessing the forum via a mobile device, it is a great way to save the topic to the device.

I have asked code writer to see what he could do to allow select posts within a topic rather than the whole topic. If he can narrow it down to only printing what you want, then it becomes an outstanding tool.

Welcome Nested! I wish I had found this forum a few month ago it would of been a huge help. I'll still be asking questions on the .308 Winchester set up with cast boolits(bullets). And have already gotten some great advice on my Turret Press.

There would be no way to access it through TT. Just switch to the "Web View" on your device and you can then use this feature. I use a Droid so the steps might be different for your device but while in TT and on the post I push the "menu key", select "More" then select "Web View" and the post will open in the web browser. In that view all the features are available. That's it, just close the browser when you are finished and you are back in TT.
