Creating PDF files

In CompSci 96, you will turn in all assignments as .pdf files, the Adobe Portable Document Format standard. We can print these and view them without worrying about whether you're using .docx, .doc, or some other word processor. You should not turn in a paper copy. All work will be submitted on Blackboard.

Windows

To create a PDF file on a windows computer you can use this web-based, online site: drawloop online to upload a .doc or .docx or other format and then get a PDF you download and turn in.

Alternatively, you can download the CutePDF Writer freeware for Windows computers and use this on your machine. Be sure to look for the freeware version.

Mac OS X

In Mac OS X, you create a PDF by choosing to print your document, e.g., from the File menu. In the print dialog choose the bottom-left PDF button and save as pdf. Here's a screen shot:
