Printing with Footnotes

Post by kaiamacejkovic »

Does anyone know a way to print out the General Conference talks WITH the footnotes? I can get them to show up on the side of the screen, but I can’t get them to print.

Using the print icon in the menu bar garners different results depending on the browser you are using. I only tried to print using Firefox and Chrome. I got only two pages of a five page talk using Firefox so I don't know if the footnotes would be included even if all five pages had printed. In Chrome I got all five pages but no footnotes. The best result I got was to first download the talk using the download icon in the menu bar that included the talk title and the five menu icons on the far right side. After clicking the download icon select This Page (PDF). This downloaded the talk as a PDF with the footnotes and opened it in another tab. This worked the same in both Firefox and Chrome. From that PDF file viewed in a browser tab page I could print to a printer using the print icon in the menu bar just above the page.

Note the printed talk using the download first method prints the pages as they would appear in the Ensign and includes images. I could not print the talk with only text and footnotes.

I don't seem to have the option for a PDF download. I see an MP3 download option. Trying to get a printout with footnotes (related content) as well.

Can you provide some details of how you are trying to print with footnotes? Include the device you are using, the operating system, and the browser being used.

In my previous post I was using a Windows 10 PC and the browsers Firefox and Chrome. You should see the two options to download if you use the download link for the page.

Availability of the PDF might vary by year.
