Saving a PDF file often works slightly differently than in Word or Excel. What is the best approach?
Saving and printing a PDF document on the Internet is easy. If you use Google Chrome, Firefox or Edge, you don’t need to install a program. If you use Internet Explorer, you will need the Adobe Reader program. We explain how to save and print a document with Adobe Reader.
How to save a document:
- Click the ‘Save a copy’ icon at the bottom or top
. If you don’t see the icon, move the mouse to the bottom of the document until the bar becomes visible. - Choose where to save the document. You do this by selecting the desired folder behind ‘Save in’.
- click on Save.
To print the document directly, do this:
- Click the ‘Print File’ icon at the bottom or top
. If you don’t see the icon, move the mouse to the bottom of the document until the bar becomes visible. - If necessary, select the printer you want to use.
- Set additional properties for the printer if necessary.
- click on Print.
