possible to save?
« on: June 18, 2010, 03:59 PM »
I don't have a color printer.

Is it possible to save the pages at a usb stick (e.g. in pdf) and print it somewhere else (copy shop) where flipbook printer is not installed??? :tellme:

yes, but you need to use a 3rd party pdf printer driver for that.. there are some free ones though i can't think of the names.

Two free PDF printers are: BullZip PDF Printer and PDFill PDF and Image Writer. Either one is a good choice. I like these because they're completely local on your machine. You don't need to web out to a service to use them.

You can download free versions at these links:

I always liked PDF Creator because it has a few options to pause the PDF creation, print "offline" kind of, then later combine multiple prints into a single PDF. The others may have that, too, I don't know. And it may not matter for this application, but you may find other uses for it.
