Ugh....we're expecting 1cm, but it's beautiful and sunny this morning, going up to +5....how can it snow?! We just got rid of that crap!

Good morning all.
Lots of rain here . I will soon start my day. Will be baking and cleaning the house today so I will have nothing to do on the weekend. Glad my DH will be having a 3 day weekend he can get some much needed rest. His days at work are long since the are busy.

Stay safe everyone and enjoy your day

@Lynn49 I typed your question into the Google and this popped up?? so maybe that helps?

• TO SAVE A DOCUMENT TO PDF FORMAT. There are 2 ways to convert a WordPerfect or Microsoft Word document to PDF Format. ...
• The “Publish To PDF” box will open up. Click [OK] ...
• Open your document in WordPerfect. Click on “File”, then “Print”, then “PDF”.
• The “Print to...” box will open up. ...
• The “Save PDF File As” box pops up.

@walkonby , you have to assume I'm 5 years old when it comes to techy stuff...so where do I find that "publish to pdf" box?

I did Google it before but I still didnt understand where to find things...

[walkonby]

um...o.k. @Lynn49 how about this very short video?



saves me typing out what he says... I HOPE this helps, i am just as lost as you tbph.

[Lynn49]

Thank you, @walkonby ....that video would have been so helpful, but when I click on File....I can get to "Publish To", and it slides over to HTML or XML, but the PDF isn't highlighted so I can't click on it.
Rats.
I'm still working with WP10 to that may make the difference....I found a video for using WP10, so maybe it'll help...thank you, Walks!!

[Lynn49]

Day what of quarantine??! I wish I could play her: Stay the FUK home...you'll have to look her up on youtube and find that one...she says a bad word...

[danger_dan]

Ugh....we're expecting 1cm, but it's beautiful and sunny this morning, going up to +5....how can it snow?! We just got rid of that crap!

it's all gone now...took about 2 hours to completely disappear. I look out back now and it looks no different that it did yesterday with our balmy 10 deg. day!

Okay, @walkonby, I DID IT!!
I looked up a WP10 video and managed to turn my test file into PDF.
Of course now I have no idea what to do with it.....Staples will use shiny paper, our photos, others I find, for my recipe book, as well as bind it, but they want a PDF file with...blah, blah, blah...something about it all being together or in one place, no idea what she meant.
I'll get it cleared up now that at least I know how to to it!
THANK YOU, WALKS!!


BTW, every Gal here....everything is 1/2 price at Ricki's on line with FREE shipping!! I'm just going to wander over there now...

@Lynn49
Don't make me cry!! I am so proud of you!!!
At first I thought I was leading you down that dark confusing path of You Tube instructions where they say stuff like everyone knows exactly what it is they are referring to. But look at you!!

btw, I looked up that Julie Kidd the Funny Mom gal and have watched ALL of her most recent Covid shorts. She's a good distraction and the songs are nice and short, just enough to get my giggle on...then she sips her wine! perfect for Thirsty Thursday ha ha

[danger_dan]

Look at you two problem solving! @Lynn49 , I guess we can just call @walkonby our resident IT Person, huh?

Have a wonderful Easter Weekend everyone.
Hopefully you will all find some hidden treats from those sneaky little bunnies!

Aw, shucks, @walkonby ...you're just a good teacher, is all....

Well, I found nothing on the Ricki's site that flipped my skirt, then our DD calls back...shoes are 40% off, free shipping at TheShoeCompany! So off I go.....got 2 pair of Sketchers, Reg $70 for $42....and one of them is pink with a bow on top!! SO moi! The other one is just a low sneak in a denim colour.
Then I picked up a new Nike sandal, Reg $29.96 for $22.47...in pink!!
Then I told my Hubby about it and he found a pair of Sketchers (all of us are Sketcher fans!), Reg 109.99, for $65.99!! All free shipping, too!!
I guess stores are really hurtin'.
I'm off to see what Cleos is offering, sometimes they have the best sales..
