Periodically I get asked how can you print forms or reports to a .pdf file. Just sharing some options for you. One is to buy the Adobe PDF writer, but if you don't want to buy a software, there are PDF converters you can download for free. One PDF converter to check out is www.dopdf.com. Basically what PDF converters do is install a virtual printer (Ex: Dopdf) in your Windows printers list. Then when you are in OSAS or TRAVERSE, you would select the PDF Printer vs. your actual printer to print a report. Now you can save it as a .pdf file or e-mail the file. You can also use this with any other software applications you can print from like Word or Excel. Labels: Open-Systems
