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.
