Pdf – Is it possible to save a One Note notebook as a landscape PDF

microsoft-onenotepdf

OneNote gives you the option of saving an entire notebook as a PDF file. Unfortunately I can only seem to find a way for it to do this in portrait orientation, which doesn't make a lot of sense for my content.

It has been suggested during my Googling that I use a PDF printer to work around this, however this isn't a workable solution as OneNote, for some strange reason, will not allow the printing of entire notebooks. I would have to do it section by section which wouldn't take an insignificant amount of time.

Does anyone know a way to force it to output in landscape. An acceptable alternative solution would be a way to change the created PDF file from portrait to landscape, though I don't know how feasible this is.

Best Answer

The document saves through Adobe Acrobat Distiller.

  • Open Adobe Acrobat Distiller
  • Rrom the Settings Menu > Edit Adobe PDF settings.
  • Change the Default Page Size to be 11.0 x 8.5
  • Save As 'landscape'.
  • At the main screen of the Distiller change Default Settings to the newly created 'landscape'.
  • Leave Distiller screen open. Go to Internet Explorer and locate the notebook you want to PDF.
  • Right click menu "Convert to Adobe PDF". voila!!

Change your Distiller Defualt back to Standard and then File > Exit Distiller.
