- If you want to save an entire NoteAbility document as an PDF file, use the Print... menu item, and set the Output Options (under the Copies and Pages pull down menu) to save the document as a PDF file. Once this is done, click on the Save... button in the standard Print panel. Also, individual pages can be copied in TIFF or PDF format and pasted directly into graphics applications by setting the Copy Types panel and using the Copy All command.

- Always remember to save your document in NoteAbility format (with the Save... or Save As... menu items) as well as saving it in an alternate file format. If you want to be able to open and edit the document at a later time using NoteAbility, you must save the file in NoteAbility format.
