I am looking for the ability to embed a Notes section on each slide of a project that will hold the learner's entries persistently.
Like this user, I am looking for something that lets the user take notes on several slides, then print the entire course with those personal notes alongside (or below, above, etc.) in a user-friendly manner.
Furthermore, we need the ability to then print these notes (or save to PDF) in a way that is formatted so that it is useful as a study aid for the user or that could be submitted for assessment to an instructor.
I've seen various options like this and this, but nothing that produces a fully formatted notes document at the end.
We have a few courses we have that allow the learner to take the modules, add notes throughout the module and then take a test. At the end of the module, they can then download their PDF feedback/results along with their notes.
We have achieved this using variables so the content is pulled across to the PDF and then used PDFMake to create it.
I have attached an example PDF which would normally have a logo at the top of the page, then all the information. Is this something your trying to achieve?
You can place text entries for the learners to type their notes. When ready to download, use PDF Maker for Storyline to pull the text into the PDF file and download the file.

Hi aaron. How do you get your notes to load in the pdf?
Hi Cindy,
Have you already built something and it's not working or are you just about to start from scratch?
I’ve built something. I can get it to email. I’m guessing my script is off some way.
Excuse any typos. Sent from my iPhone
If you want to share the source file and any other files for it, I can take a look for you?
Aaron,
Sorry for the delayed response. This is helpful, thank you!
I'm going to try and implement it and will be back with any questions that may arise.
@ aaron Kapala; I am looking for something like the PDF you have here for our learners. Would it be possible to share the story?
Thanks
