Need Help Converting to Digital PDFs?

As we continue to streamline our workflows and ensure compliance with board policy and legal requirements, creating digital PDF documents has become a standard practice – and for good reason! Think of PDFs as the official, unchangeable snapshots of your important work. They guarantee that everyone sees the same information, whether it's a permission slip, a student report, or curriculum materials.

Why the PDF Push? It's All About:

• Seamless Sharing: Forget about formatting issues! PDFs look the same on any device, making sharing a breeze.

• Accessibility: Properly created PDFs can be made accessible for all learners and stakeholders.

• Security: Sensitive information can be password-protected within a PDF.

• Compliance: Our district policies and various regulations mandate the use of secure, digital formats like PDF for record-keeping.

• Sustainability: By embracing digital, we're also making a positive impact on our environment by reducing paper consumption.

Your Quick Guide to Creating PDFs (Using What You Already Know!):

• Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides:

  • Simply go to File > Download and choose PDF document (.pdf). For Sheets, you'll have some layout options before downloading.

• Canva:

  • Click Share > Download, and in the "File type" dropdown, choose PDF (Standard) for general use or PDF (Print) if you need it for professional printing.

Friendly Reminders:

• Name your PDFs! This makes searching and organizing much easier (e.g., "FieldTrip_PermissionSlip_Grade5.pdf").

• Take a quick peek at your PDF after creating it to ensure everything looks right.
