Using our print system here at Pepperdine can be a bit of a challenge at times, particularly if you just want to print a few pages of a word document.
Since the web interface for printing requires PDF files to print, you may find yourself looking for a way to print selected pages without buying an expensive copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro.
One approach is to install a PDF “printer” that will allow you to select a series of pages (example: 7,11,21,57) or a range of pages (example: 56-65) and send them to the PDF “printer” which really just creates a PDF file of the pages you have selected.
MAC and Windows users should be able to do this with their existing software.
FOR WINDOWS users:
When you want to print, enter the pages you want to print:
If you want a range of pages enter the first page then a hyphen then the last page (so it might be 56-65).
If you want a non-consecutive selection of pages, separate them with commas. So let’s say we want to print pages 7,11,21,57 — just enter them like that and you’ll get a file with only those pages.
You will be prompted to name the file — I suggested saving the file to your desktop so it’s easy to find to upload to the file server at print.pepperdine.edu.
