Save a Blackboard Ultra test or assignment as a PDF
Instructors often take advantage of Blackboard's assignment and test functionality to deliver these items online, instead of providing print copies. However, there may be a few instances where the instructor needs either a PDF for their own records or to even print out the assignment.
Directions only for Google Chrome
This FAQ will outline the steps how to create an easy-to-read version of your assignment from Blackboard, but it is important to note that you will need to be using Google Chrome.
1. Open the assessment in your Blackboard course.
2. Scroll to the very bottom of your assessment.
3. Highlight the very last word, then scroll up to the very top of the assessment.
4. While your selection is still highlighted, locate the Print menu. Note: this step may vary depending on the operating system and version of Chrome. (On macOS, go to File > Print...)
5. Change the Destination to "Save as PDF." Then click "More Settings"
6. Ensure that the only checkbox selected is "Selection only." Then, click save.

Students can use this tool too!
Instructors: you should note that students will also have this ability when viewing their assignments. To prevent students from saving and printing assessments like this, consider using the Respondus Lockdown Browser.
