Mathcad Prime 2.0 saves PDF files - how?

The Data Sheet for Mathcad prime 2.0 specifically says it allows you to "Save as XPS and PDF"

How? I can only see options for MCDX and XPS. Where is the option for PDF?

Steve,

If you want to print to PDF, choose Print, then scroll to the left until you see Adobe PDF. A PDF file is then created, which you can name and save.

How is it going Steve:

My trick is to use the Acrobat printer (not Reader)...or another virtual PDF printer (foxit, PDFCreator). I recomend you to try the freeware doPDF (http://www.dopdf.com).

Another trick is to set the grid to "none" for avoid printing him.

I don't know a "direct method" for doing that..only the printing one.

Best regards,

Not to save but print it. In main menu select "File" -> "Print" -> "PDF Printer".

Thanks Mona,

I must have been confused by Mathcad Prime claiming it as a feature although it seems that creating PDFs isn't a feature of Mathcad at all.

Never mind, at least I know what to do now. Thanks again.
