Bill, I bought the App (3.99) for the iPhone, downloaded the app for the Mac. I can see how you can load files FROM the MAC to print as a PDF on the iPhone, but is there a way to take the series of text on the iPhone and print as a PDF for the Mac or even for the iPhone?
I'll try contacting the company tomorrow to see what they say if you haven't tried this. Not sure it can be done. John On Dec 9, 2013, at 5:14 PM, Bill Holt <[email protected]> wrote: > Yes.
