The agency logo in the upper right-hand corner of most AWARDS page provides quick and easy access to printing. When the logo is clicked, the Print dialog box is displayed. You can use its various settings to specify how the current AWARDS page should be printed. (For the best results, use the agency logo to print rather than using your Web browser's print feature.)
TIP: you are having difficulty printing, first confirm that you are using a supported browser. Printing problems can often be a symptom of using an out-of-date / unsupported browsers. For more information on supported AWARDS browsers, click here.

When Firefox is your browser:

By default, most computers are set up to print to a printer; however, you may also be able to set up your system to "print to PDF" in order to save AWARDS pages / records as PDF files. Once saved as PDFs, AWARDS content can be viewed offline as needed.
In order to print to PDF, you will need to enable print to PDF functionality on your computer, or install a third party "PDF printer" software. Foothold Technology does not support either of these options, so we recommend you discuss your options with your agency's IT team. They will help determine the best solution for you, and may be able to assist you in implementing that solution.
Once your computer has been configured to print/save to PDF, you can follow the usual process for printing AWARDS pages, but change the selected printer to the PDF option when needed.
When Chrome is your browser:
1. Click your agency's logo in the AWARDS navigation bar. The Print dialog box is displayed.
2. Next to "Destination," click Change.
3. Click Save as PDF.
4. Click Save. The Save As dialog box is displayed.
