Printing from Gmail or GoogleDocs


DO NOT PRINT FROM Google Docs or Gmail WITHOUT READING THE FOLLOWING:

If you want to print a document/text from your Gmail or GoogleDocs account, you must use Adobe Reader to format and print PDF the pages.  DO NOT click on “Print PDF” in Gmail or GoogleDocs.
To do this:
1.        Download the document from Google,
2.        Open with Adobe Reader , (the plug-in should open automactically)
3.        Send it to the printer.

If you don’t do this and instead click on “Print PDF” in Gmail or GoogleDocs the document will not print correctly. Multiple pages of code will print out instead.
To be sure your document will print correctly, look for the PDF menu (the "ghost") which you see when you mouse over the bottom of a PDF.  The PDF format within Google Docs does not have this ghost menu.
