      OK to save changes.

  3. Print to PDF missing in Printer List

    Thanks for your help. I was browsing the web the other day and I found a page called FINAL DRAFT. They had a set of instructions for reinstalling the Microsoft Print to PDF utility that worked great for me. Problem solved.

    save Fresh Paint file to PDF

    Hi JuliaMPSimmons,

    You can save your picture printing it as a PDF.

    Follow these steps:

    • Open your picture using the Fresh Paint app
    • Click the printer icon

    • Then, choose "Microsoft Print to PDF" as printer

    • Carry on and print your picture as a PDF
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you've already saved your picture as a *.png/*.jpg/... file, you can equally print the file that you have as a PDF (using "Microsoft Print to PDF").

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I hope it was helpful.

    Cheers!
