The Project Title and Job References can be entered for the particular project in the Job and Project Reference dialogue box.

Print the current brief : Lets you to prtint the current brief alone.

Print all : allows you print all briefs in the file to a printer or PDF.

Select the printer or PDF from the printer list.

To print to PDF you need a suitable PDF creator which is usually added to the list of printers available on your computer. Alternatively you ca use the built MasterSeriesPDF PDF printer.

If you print to a PDF creator, the program can keep adding output to that particular PDF until the you close it. To ensure that MasterSeries retains the open PDF print session and continues to add to it with each print operation, the 'PDF' check must be checked for the selected PDF creator. 

⚠️

When you print to a PDF creator or the built in MasterSeriesPDF, it may appear as nothing has happened. However pages will have been added to an open PDF print session. In this way you can continue to append print operations to the PDF print session, and when ready you can close the session to finally produce and save the PDF document.

See the Printer Icon drop menu at the bottom left of the screen, with the 'Close PDF Session' option as shown below. The number of pages added the to PDF session and status of the session are also shown.

To close it click on the down arrow beside the printer in the bottom left of the screen and select to 'Close the PDF session'.

At this point you will be prompted to save the PDF giving it a file name.


⚠️

If you do not check the PDF check box to identify a PDF creator printer as a such, then the persistent PDF session will not be generated and each print operation will create it's own PDF document or possibly multiple document in some instances. 

This setting is only necessary for your installed PDF Creators and not the built in MasterSeriePDF.

You can also export the design briefs to a Word document.

You need to have Word on your computer and the Office Tools utility on your MasterSeries licence.
