How to e-mail Donor Manager reports
Posted: Thu Oct 12, 2006 6:40 am
People frequently ask, "How can I e-mail a Donor Manager report?"
The quickest and easiest way is to install a "PDF Writer" program on your computer. This allows any Windows program to "print" to a PDF file, and then you can e-mail that PDF file.
There are many PDF creation programs out there, but one of my favorites is called win2pdf (http://www.win2pdf.com). This program is free for personal and non-profit use, and really works great. The files that it creates are small, and it is very easy to e-mail them.
It installs as a "printer" and you simply select win2pdf as your printer, and away you go!
The free version does have a "nag" screen, and it adds an additional page to each pdf created that simply advertises the program, but you can register and pay if that annoys you.
It's a simple solution, and everyone I have recommended it to really likes it.
There are other PDF creation programs out there, some free, some commercial. Any other recommendations?
