It is possible to create and download a PDF of your topics and articles in Tribal Habits (with the exception of topics and articles imported from the Tribal Habits library).

This is typically for compliance review or auditing, but its also useful if you want to review your content in written form or circulate the content for review by people outside the platform.

Your PDF can be the latest published version, an earlier version, or the 'Creator Version' which includes any unpublished changes.

Note: Only Admins can create a PDF of a topic or article.

Creating a PDF

Follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the topic or article in your Admin portal. Click the 'I want to...' button in the top-right of the page and select 'PDF Topic' or 'PDF Article'.

  2. Select the version you would like to turn into a PDF. Note: Selecting 'Creator Version' allows you to PDF unpublished changes in the Topic or Article.

  3. Select Download to create a PDF of your content in a new window, which you can then save.

Note: Only topics or articles created by your organisation are available for PDF. You cannot PDF a topic which you have imported from the Tribal Habits library.
