How do I change my files back to PDF from Chrome?

Answered by Frank Schwing

To change your files back to PDF from Chrome, you can follow these steps:

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.

2. Click on the three vertical dots located on the top-right corner of the browser window. This will open a drop-down menu.

3. From the drop-down menu, select “Print.” Alternatively, you can press the Ctrl + P (or Command + P on Mac) keyboard shortcut to directly access the print settings.

4. A print dialog box will appear on your screen. Here, you can choose the desired printer and adjust print settings. However, we need to change the destination to save the file as a PDF.

5. Look for the “Destination” section in the print dialog box. By default, it is set to your default printer. Click on the “Change” button next to it.

6. A list of available destinations will appear. Scroll down until you find the “Save as PDF” option. Click on it to select it as your new destination.

7. Once you’ve selected “Save as PDF” as the destination, you can further customize the output by clicking on the “More settings” link. Here, you can adjust the paper size, layout, margins, and other options according to your preferences.

8. After customizing the print settings, click on the “Save” button to save the changes.

9. You will be directed back to the print dialog box. Make sure the correct printer and settings are selected, and then click on the “Save” or “Print” button to start the conversion process.

10. A save dialog box will appear, allowing you to choose the location on your computer where you want to save the PDF file. Select the desired folder or location, enter a file name for your PDF, and click on the “Save” button.

11. Google Chrome will convert the web page into a PDF file and save it to the specified location on your computer. Once the conversion is complete, you can access and view the PDF using any PDF reader software.

Remember, these steps are specifically for converting web pages to PDF using the Google Chrome browser. Other browsers may have different methods or options for converting files to PDF.
