export a project file for printing

[david]

I want to print an MS project chart at Kinko's. They don't have MS project.
How can I export the data so that Kinko's can do the printing?

David,

If you have the capability to generate a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat (or
other software product) you would be able to give them a file they could
print, assuming that Kinko's is willing to download the Adobe Reader.

Hope this help!

Kinko's has Adobe Reader, and you can download a conversion to turn
your Project views into Adobe files. Just Google for it.

Last time I used them a few years ago they had their own file creator so
that that you could print to their format and then they would print the file
that was generated. This is the same sort of process as creating a PDF of
your file, except it uses the Kinko software and their own format.
Here is a link to the download:

I don't see an export option in MS project to create a PDF.

Hi David,

You need to have a software product that can generate PDF files. Then you
print the project to the PDF writer. For some links to inexpensive PDF
programs see FAQ # 16 "Project Viewer" at
www.mvps.org/project

Hope this helps.
