Print ANYTHING in StoryLine
By adding a new tab in the player properties panel and assigning it to execute the "window.print();" JavaScript, you can allow your participants to print any/every slide in your StoryLine projects including "Notes" or "Certificate" slides! No need to create a complex JavaScript course certificate solution, simply build a beautiful slide and let your users print it directly from the StoryLine player!
For SL 3 and 360 users, you can also move, reformat, hide, and reveal the button so you can take control over what users can print.
I've included the screen shots I used in the video in the attached Word document along with the JavaScript code snippets and an SL3 .story file.

Olá! Hi!
Falando do futuro! HAHA
Existe a possibilidade de imprimir apenas uma caixa de texto (objeto) no slide?
Obrigada! :)
Não é possível imprimir objetos individuais no player. No entanto, você pode armazenar o texto da caixa de texto em uma variável e gerar uma página html imprimível com o texto usando JavaScript.
I hope Google Translate got that right!
This approach works well in desktop browsers but does not work correctly in mobile browsers. See here for more info: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/printing-in-storyline-3-mobile-printing-black-screen
That is because the mobile player does not support JavaScript.
Has anyone had any luck with eliminating the extraneous data when printing?
Hi,
do you have any idea how to print multiple pages at once? For example, my presentation have 20 slides, and I want to user print only 15-20 at once by clicking button. Button also needs to be on the slide, not the player. Is this even possible?
Cheers
Hi Jacek,
If you want your learners only to see specific parts of your lesson, possibly the easiest way forward using standard functionality would be to publish your lesson in MS Word format, adjust the resulting document to suit your learner requirements and then embed that word document into your lesson behind a button as a PDF for learners to download and print at their leisure?
Hi Bruce,
sadly, that will not work. I forgot to mention what need to be printed. It would be custom review slides. So it will have answer which user choose plus correct answer.
Has anyone tried to do the print screen and have it sent via email, without having the learner attach it to an email? I need to have the learner click one button and have the print screen attach to the email to send.
Okay, thought so. Guess I will just have to have them attach the print screen to the email and send it. Thanks.
Has anyone figured out the javascript needed to print a scrolling panel?
