Printing Course Materials

When you are viewing the Enhancing Program Performance with Logic Models course, you will notice that you do not always have available the menu options and buttons that you are accustomed to seeing when online. The amount of space on your screen has been maximized to accommodate the course content. This does not mean, however, that you are unable to print course pages. At any time, pressing Ctrl and P on your keyboard will allow you to print the course page displayed on your screen.

Some course pages have a lot of content that may span too far across the page to appear if printed in typical Portrait format. If you print a page and do not get all of the page’s content, you may want to try printing the page in Landscape orientation. To do this, choose the Layout tab from your Print window. Then, click Landscape under the list of orientation options.

To print the contents of a pop-up box, click on the printer icon located in the upper right hand corner of the toolbar.

If a pop-up box is too small, the printer icon may not be displayed. In this case, click on the double arrows in the upper right hand corner of the tool bar to display more options including the print function.
