Printing the Glossary?

Is there a way to easily print the Glossary, with all its terms and definitions?  Copy and paste did not seem to work. 

Thanks!

  • Janet,

    Articulate does not respond to ideas on the basis of how good they are, they respond to ones that a lot of users want. So everybody that wants a new function should request it.

    In your particular case, go to File -> Translation -> Export (or export to Word in SL 3). Deselect Include original text. It will export and open a Word file. Use find to search for glossary, and you will see this:

    Highlight only the item names and definitions and copy them. I have only one item, but you can copy hundreds at a time:

     

    Open a new Word document, right click and from the paste options, choose to keep only the text:

     

    Beautify as necessary. I usually bold the item names.

      This is an interesting solution I had never considered, thanks Walt!  Totally did the job for me.

  • Just checking in, can you add me as a number to the list of users wishing to be able to export the glossary to give to their SME to review?  Right now I have the SME just putting it in the Comment box in Review but it makes for a very long comment list ...would love to be able to export the existing for exporting and then just copy and paste changes back in,.  Glad I found it so I know someone has requested it.

  • Wanted to double check and see if a end user could print the glossary located in the player. If not, could you add my name to this feature enhancement? Thanks!

  • Hi Jen, thanks for reaching out!

    We have a feature request logged for the user to be able to print or export the glossary, so this is still on our radar. I have linked you to the feature request, and we will be sure to update you with any news should this make it onto our feature roadmap.

    Thank you again for sharing your comments! 

  • My client requests to print the glossary. Is this possible now?  We do not want to try to keep both an MSW Word and StoryLine glossary as eventually one will become out of date (mistakenly).

     

  • Hi Sara,

    Currently, printing the glossary is not a feature available in Storyline. A feature request has already been submitted for this. This conversation is being linked to that request, so if it makes it onto our feature roadmap, we’ll make sure to update you!

    Thanks for reaching out!
