About 12 yrs ago, I wrote a piece following my bowel screening. It was used in a magazine. Someone on MSE converted it to a PDF so I could share it easily. Ive lost that link and can't create it again myself. Would one of you please?

    If you created it in MS Office you save it in PDF format, if you use LibraOffice you can export the document as a PDF. 

    If you are using a Window PC the print function should give you the option to print as PDF which will create a PDF file for you.
  • Op here.
    I copied /pasted someone on mse the article. They converted it to a pdf and sent that back to me where i stored it within google keep. Each time i wanted to share it, all i needed to do was copy that link. Ive obviously lost that link.

    I do have the complete article now updated. Thought it might be useful to share again. 
  • If you have kept the text/emails you sent to people the link will be there. 

    If you want message me the stuff and I'll get it done before 5pm today

    If you have it saved as a word document, you can use a free online PDF creator. I can't post a link, but if you enter that into Google you should see something relevant. That'll allow you to download it and store it on your machine ready to send to others.
