Creating downloadable pdf files in Storyline - an update on earlier methods

Hi Heather

The workshops were a one-off and were specific to creating downloadable notes in RISE using Javascript and local browser storage. They weren't recorded because the workshop usedseveral short video clips demonstrating the key steps in the approach. I am currently converting these into a single asynchronous elearning that covers the whole process and step-by-step instructions, which I will make available on our site.

BUT, if your interest is just to do this in Storyline, I posted details and a short demo of this earlier in this thread. It looks a bit daunting if JavaScript isn't your thing - but it is, actually, fairly simple code.

If you download the sample Storyline file and the pdf template in this post, I would be happy to help go through that example.

The nice thing about this approach is that you, firstly, design your handount as a pdf template inserting fields where you want the learner's input to go - no JavaScript at all involved in that bit! You then just copy the code from the Storyline sample and it should be reasonably simple to work out where your field names need to go.

But, as I say - happy to assist, if I can.
