Exporting Published Course in .pdf format or for word?

I am trying to export a Rise course as a .pdf for offline use (instructor guide, etc.) Is there a way to do this? (Similar to the Storyline export to word function?)

 

Thanks!

Hi Alyssa, thanks for the info, unfortunately this does not seem to be working. It will only show one block or a corner of the page. I have also tried a few pdf converters and a few other ideas shared on here and no luck. I saw Adam's Peek recording and for some reason that won't work for my course (it is built mainly with blocks and it seems to only save or print the first block) any other suggestions? thanks!

Hi Patricia,

It occurs to me that you may not need a PDF. If you’re looking to make the course viewable without an internet connection, I’ve got the answer for you.

Try this:

  1. Export your Rise course for No LMS - Web only
  2. Extract the .zip file
  3. Double click the index.html file to open the course without internet connection

You can also share this .zip file with instructors and have them follow steps 2 and 3. Here’s a quick Peek!

It occurred to me that you're probably using a Windows machine, and the process is a little different there. If you're in Windows, try this:

From your Downloads folder...

  1. Right-click the zipped file and select Extract All.
  2. Click Extract.
  3. Once the file has finished extracting, double-click the Content folder.
  4. Double-click Index.
  5. A new browser window/tab should open, and you should see your Rise course there.

Let me know if that helps!

Thanks Chad - and just to confirm, you extract the files and click on the index.html file? 

I tested the same thing on Windows 10 with that version of Chrome and the file launched.

When I don't extract the files from the zip - I get the blank page, so make sure you're following that step!

I couldn't get this to work either.  I am using the same settings as Chad.  When I export it says that the export is complete and it will be sent in an email to my account.  I see where it downloads in the bottom of my screen, but when I followed the steps above, I get a blank page in Chrome also.  I never received anything in email either.
