I have a commercial quality Xerox laser A3 / A4 printer and am happy to print door posters for Wammers FOC.

Simply PM me with a pdf of your design, state whether you would like it A4 or A3 and then come to room 216 to collect on Saturday.

Morning Nick

Sorry I have used Powerpoint to make my Door Poster and I cannot find any way to convert this to PDF format . If I sent you the Powerpoint copy can you print from that ?

I can print from Powerpoint but dont forget to embed fonts if you have used any 'special' ones.

Alternatively, just go to the 'file' pull down menu, then 'export', and you should have an option for pdf.

Anyway, send me something and I can probably get on with it OK. I had a few years working in graphic design so I am used to all sorts of files being flung at me.

Another way to produce a pdf from PowerPoint, Word or whatever is to “print” it. When the print box comes up asking about page range, two-sided etc, there should be a box at the bottom saying pdf. This allows you to save as a pdf what is basically a print image, embedded fonts and all. This is on a Mac.

Yeah, or he could just do what I suggested in the first place which is to export as a pdf which does all the font stuff automatically. The need to embed fonts is only when sending a PowerPoint file to another user or computer. The export as pdf option in Word is a menu in 'save as'.

Same difference. Same result. Same ease of use. Same number of steps. Ok?

Well, not quite because the printer route to a pdf takes information from the printer set up in terms of paper size, orientation and indeed sometimes whether it is converted to RGB or CMYK etc whereas the export function doesn't.

ie not always the same result and sometimes more steps if the default printer set up requires changing.
