(Archived) Solution for Printing Notes?


GrahamS

Idea

I use Evernote to create notes for my classes. All of my classes have 100% finals that allow any students to use any books/notes. The key is preparing concise, organized notes that allow for quick access to the information you're looking for. 

I have had trouble using Evernote to convert my class notes into printable notes however. There is no print utility that allows me to see where a page break might be in printing, and so I have resorted to the painful process of adding blank space and checking the print preview regularly to ensure that I have no hanging bullet points and that one topic fits neatly onto one page (see attachements). 

Does anyone know of a solution for printing tidy and organized notes? I have tried copying and pasting my notes into MS Word, but the bullets/headings/etc do not transfer well and it ends up taking more time to fix it all.

To developers: If Evernote could implement a simple printing option that gives visible page breaks (and maybe page numbers) it would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

As you already worked out,  the only way to format notes for printing is to use a document of some sort - you could attach a PDF file forinstance which would display and print exactly the same.  But you can't edit PDFs easily and you can't print a series of note PDFs together. Attachments must be printed one at a time.  There's certainly a big education market out there if anyone wants to look at creating an app to help out...

Hm.. I may have to re-think how I take my notes. Maybe break them into smaller topics, so they are easier to edit into printable pages. Then again it might be simpler to just use a word processor designed for printing big files.

Is anyone aware of a word processor or app that would allow a relatively clean copy-paste from Evernote? 

Maybe some kind of printing/MS Publisher-type app would make a good addition to the Evernote family...
