How do I print files to PDF?

Printing a document to PDF allows you to save a clean, flattened version of your file that avoids many common formatting or compatibility issues. This is especially helpful when a document won't upload correctly due to hidden metadata or problematic file structure. Converting to PDF helps standardize the file and often resolves upload problems.

To use Google Chrome to print documents to PDF:

1. Select your document from your file finder
2. Right-click on the document
3. Select "Open with"
4. Click "Google Chrome"
5. Once your Google Chrome window has opened, click the small printer icon in the top right corner of your screen
6. Select "Save as PDF".
