Exporting a File Automatically

You can export your .notebook file at any time and in a variety of formats, including HTML and PDF, as well as PowerPoint files or image files. You can also set SMART Notebook to export a file automatically when you display a different page or after a specified period of time.

NOTES

SMART Notebook doesn't export attachments when you export files as images. To include attachments, you must export your file as either HTML or PDF (Adobe Acrobat Reader 6.0 or later).

SMART Notebook doesn't export files that you attach to your file as a shortcut. If you want to include an attachment, you must attach a copy of the file.
