I think I need a little help.

We just started using OnShape last fall. I want my students to be able to print a PDF File

    Right click on the drawing tab at the bottom of the screen, and there will be an export option. PDF is the first choice.

    Or click the hamburger menu and hit print.

    Also, you are going to want to make sure your browser isn't blocking any .onshape.com domains. The drawing print to pdf function uses a browser popup.

    Take care when printing from the browser. I've seen funny scaling effects recently, when I used a client's Mac to print some drawings. Printing the downloaded PDF yielded much more consistent results.

    Sometimes the print driver on the computer is set for custom or fit-to-print, rather than 100" to scale. That can cause unexpected printed results.
