Rebecca Demski replied to Rebecca Demski's discussion PDF and Notebook in the group SMARTBoards in the Middle School
"Thank you for all the replies. We are a PC school, no Macs. Drag and drops links as described. I had forgotten about the screen capture tool. I will show her how to use that tool since quality is better. I'm sure they will want high quality…"

Randy Tran replied to Rebecca Demski's discussion PDF and Notebook in the group SMARTBoards in the Middle School
"Hi Debbie,   By any chance are you using a Windows based PC?  The only time a PDF can be dragged into a Notebook file and directly editable is if you do this on the Mac version of the software.  When you try this on a Windows based…"

Obe Hostetter replied to Rebecca Demski's discussion PDF and Notebook in the group SMARTBoards in the Middle School
"One way to get the pdf file into Notebook would be to use the Notebook camera to take pictures of it until you have it into Notebook. Another way would be to find a MAC computer with Notebook and drag or insert the pdf into Notebook."

PDF and Notebook

The choir teacher wanted to be able to use the SMART tools and mark on a PDF file.  It isn't working, so then she wanted to import a PDF file into notebook, so they could mark on the sheet music.  That isn't working. I told her I would post a question to the forum.  Has anyone had success using floating tools with a PDF file?  If so, what tips/suggestions, do you have? Secondly, is there a way to import PDF files into notebook.  The version I am using at home doesn't seem to have that…See More
