How+to+Convert+a+Page+to+PDF+file

Often it is necessary or easier to convert a web page, Word or Excel document into a PDF page because you may just need a snap shot of the page. Additionally, this will avoid any frustration with compatibility issues when opening a document if they are using a different OS or Windows version. Converting a page to a PDF document is easily done on your computer. First, you will need to ensure that your computer has downloaded a free software called [|Primo PDF]. This program can convert any files from Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint formats into PDF to print and save. Download this free program from the website as seen below, if it is not already on your computer.


 * Note: This program is for Windows OX, Vista, or Windows 7 operating systems only.




 * Step 2:** Once Primo PDF is downloaded on your computer, you can be using any program and any page you decide to use as PDF format such as from a Word Document, Excel, PowerPoint or web page, just click on the "File" button on the **Tools** bar and select "Print".


 * Step 3:** Once the Print window appears, there is a drop down selection next to **Name** for printer types. Select "PrimoPDF", then click "OK". The program should then be preparing your document into PDF format and a small "PrimoPDF" window (as seen below) should appear where you can select the PDF settings, and it will ask you where to save the file next to "Save As". Select where to save the file so that it is easily located, then click "OK". The document will then open as PDF format and you are able to send this as a PDF attachment so that it is can be easily viewed by others or you can print out the document as is.
