New Rise Feature: Export as PDF
Today we released a new feature in Rise that I think you’ll appreciate—especially those of you who work in highly regulated industries! Now you can export your Rise courses as PDF files for easy printing and meeting regulatory requirements.

Currently when I export a "Step-by-Step" lesson on Rise to .PDF it puts each step on its own page. Is there anyway to format this differently? It would be ideal for me to be able to have 2-4 steps on each page. I understand the text and photos would be smaller, and thats ok. If there is a way of doing this, it will save me hours of work on each project I do. Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might have! <3
Hey Stephen,
You may be able to correct the page breaks by editing the exported course in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
Thankfully the export is not a perfect representation of what the learners will see on the screen.

Hi Staff!
Any chance that the video placeholders may become links? Also, some of my entries are cut in half at the page break. Any way of overcoming that?
Hi Michael,
Some of the blocks or lessons may split over multiple pages, as our export process won't shrink them to fit on one page or adjust across pages. You may be able to correct text size and page break issues by editing the exported course in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
As for the video placeholders becoming links, our team is always interested to know about what other features you'd like to see! I'm happy to share that idea with them.

Thanks for passing on the request Ashely... I was experimenting with taking the PDF and importing it into one of my blogs on WordPress... It may make big projects like Destination Mars 169 sections) a bit more palatable... Right now, I'm experimenting with Web Links for a single section to my server and see how that process works...
Always happy to share it, Michael! So please keep the ideas coming.
A PDF copy of that cool Mars course you created though, doesn't sound nearly as fun! 😉

I'm exporting to PDF and getting a 1 page blank file. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Having the same issue Louise.
Hi Louise and Cam,
We did have an issue with the export to PDF function last night, but it should be all fixed up now! Can you try exporting again?
Thanks for letting us know that this would be helpful for you as well Matt. You should now be subscribed to this thread so that any updates we have to share will notify you :)
