Thanks, Brian!
Testing again, hoping it works.


And...it does! :thumbup:
 
Is there any easy way to print a thread which is more than one page or save it as a pdf?

There is a thread of more than one page that I would like to print or download as a pdf file. Do I have to print each page separately. Is there a way I can print the entire thread at one time (or save it all as a pdf file)
 
there is no way i know of to convert a page to a pdf, as that would require adobe software to actually create PDF files.

might be an add on i can find to allow the printing of an entire thread, but its not a built in feature that im aware of.

Brian,
Apart from the PDF question, if there is a multi-page thread that you wish to print and save, is there a way to do that without having to print each "page" of the thread separately? I recall the prior version of the software being able to do so, but I can't figure out how to do it now.

Thanks.
 
The good thing about the prior software was that you could set it to show 75 posts per page. Making it much easier to print long threads. The current software only allows for 25 posts per page with no way to change it. Perhaps that is why you are thinking the prior software allowed for this. I don't recall any way in the prior version of vBulletin that allowed you to easily print multi page threads other than to print each page separately.

Chrome does allow you to save to PDF, but you would still have the issue with multi page threads. If there was some ability to increase the number of posts per page, I sure would like that even though I never print anything.
 
sadly the "posts per page" is a site wide setting now...this is done for linking purposes to ensure everyones "page 2" is the same as everyone elses etc.

When you go to Print - use Print as PDF for each page you want to convert. Then use software to combine the individual PDFs

Good advice, IF the browser one is using has this as an option in its print dialog. Many do not.

In many cases, one may have some other software that installed a print-to-pdf device driver already. If so, one could then print the page, telling the browser's print dialog to use that other installed pdf "printer" to create the file. I have several such drivers installed by such things as Quicken and several different pdf reading programs.

I've even got one called "Microsoft Print to PDF" that I never noticed before which came with Windows 10. When I tell my browser to print the page I'm viewing to "Microsoft Print to PDF" in the available printer list, it brings up a dialog where I choose where to save the file and what to name it.

Here's some info on printing to PDF via Windows 7, 8 or 10: http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/print-pdf-windows/
 
Good point. I thought Print to PDF was pretty much standard.
