Export Quiz Result to a pdf
Apr 02, 2023
I am trying to build an assessment tool in Storyline 3, that has many questions (about 200) (all single choice but with different scores).
Is it possible to export the quiz result as a pdf by the user, where it shows the following:
a) Score (e.g.67/200)
b) All the Incorrect answers
c) All the correct answers.
Any tips on how to do this, or whether anybody here has the expertise to do this? Thank You for reading.

Exporting quiz results to a PDF can be a useful way to share the results with others or keep a record for future reference. Here are the steps to export quiz results to a PDF:
Note that the specific steps may vary depending on the quiz platform or software you are using. Some platforms may not have an option to export quiz results to a PDF directly, in which case, you may need to copy and paste the results into a document and then save it as a PDF file.
It is really amazing! Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks but that is very generic. What do you mean by "Quiz Platform"? I thought this group was only for Articulate users? Can this be done in Storyline 3?
What's amazing?
Hello Mandar,
Storyline 360 has a built-in Print Slide Trigger which you can use to print all of the information that is displayed on the Results Slide.
I understand that you're using Storyline 3, so that version won't have the Print Slide trigger that I mentioned. As a workaround, you can check out this community post where a user shared how you can print almost anything in Storyline using Javascript.
The correct/incorrect answers will not be available, as this information is sent to the LMS, but you will have access to the user's score.
Thank You. Well, there was an option to publish to Word that I remember in Storyline 3, but that will not suit my purpose. Can the answers not be captured and outputted in a report? Like a student report? I will check out the workaround that you mentioned now.
Hi Mandar,
Thanks for the follow-up question! I understand you'd like to capture and output the quiz answers in a report. You’ll want to use the Javascript workaround that Joe mentioned above. We don’t currently have an option for printing out quiz answers as a student report.
If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to ask!
Hi Mandar
This demo is a downloadable pdf slider-based survey rather than a quiz - but the principle would be the same. In fact, it should be easier to do the quiz results

The demo captures the slider settings in the survey - holds them in variables which are then picked up by a JavaScript routine at the end of the course and used to show the option selected by the learner in a pdf copy of the survey.
With a quiz I think you should be able to store the learner's actual selection on a multiple choice quiz by checking the state of the Radio Buttons on the screen when they click the 'Submit' button. If you've got 200 questions that's quite a lot of variables - but there's probably a more elegant way of doing it that someone will suggest...
The key point about this demo is that the output pdf is actually based on a pdf form template. i.e. you can format it any way you want by creating the output report as a pdf form. The JavaScript reads the pdf form and populates the named fields in the form with the variables it has picked up during the course,
I don't really know if this approach works in Storyline 3 - don't see why it wouldn't.
I hope this helps...
PS - I guess I could enter this demo in this week's eLearning heroes challenge!
Thank You John Cooper this is very helpful, I now have some ideas as to how I can proceed. Thank You very much!
The cluelabs widgets Melinda refers to are really excellent - and, are easy to implement.
Worth pointing out though that the use of their widgets is generally chargeable above a certain level of usage.
I am trying to create something like this demo https://demo9.profilelearning.com/. I would like to ask where i can find storyline file for this demo.
Thanks
Hey John, I LOVE this pdf demo. How do you go about creating this?
Hello. I am trying to create a downloadable/printable PDF of the basic quiz results (no other variables). Does anyone know how to convert the html version that is created when using the Print Results button to a PDF document? Thanks!
