Thanks Marcel! I think learning is easier when you're having fun, but it's also easier for me to put these together when I'm able to be goofy. Let me know if you have anything you'd like to see in the future. Cheers!

Hi Nick, thank you so much for sharing, this is awesome! I was wondering if you could tell me how to enter the course name and student name into the PDF using variables from SL 360. Basically, instead of entering the name on the PDF before printing, is there a way that the name and course name entered into SL 360 can be transferred into the PDF for printing.

how to add a certificate with name and date in the storyline

Hi Nick Shelton, Thank you for the tutorial. Is there a way i can store that data in my external container? Am thinking of an external reporting system that can work with articulate to store all that information making it easy for the user to track his/her progress.

Hey man, I don't know if you will see this or not but I'm struggling with where to put my certificate once it's made in PDF and where to go from there in storyline? I have tried to place the PDF in a folder and put that folder in the storyline output but I don't know if you used any particular Javascript command on the Print PDF button or not? and so I posted this work on LMS moodle system and that failed to find the file. Am I doing anything wrong in the process! If so could you help me out please?

Thanks man, good vid and the help as well!

No problemo - glad it was helpful! Cheers.

Many thanks, it works perfectly!

so FYI ALL: Part I is for Storyline 2 (not 360), though the IMPT part is that it's utilizing a FLASH OBJECT, so now Part 1 is a BAD idea. However, PART 2 is (still) SUPER handy, and the extra bit using chrome to position saves non-webDevs quite a bit of pain! [FYI: @16:42'ish there's an awkward jump/cut in the video. Although, it just seems to be the lead in to on how to "figure it out".]

Hi Nick, thanks for theTutorial In recipe 2 you show how to how to pass variables from Storyline to a new html-page Can I also pass variables from Storyline to a pdf accoring to recipe 3 and how ?

Robert Marti there are ways to do this but it is browser dependent. If you open acrobat, there is the ability to run JavaScript in a PDF you author. You would have to embed your JavaScript to run on page load, and then to take data from the browser (either through the window object, query sting, etc). Quite frankly, for a certificate, it’s probably more of a pain in the ass than it’s worth, and I’d prefer a server-side solution. That’s a start for you. An easy test would be to pull a query string data by accessing “myPdf.pdf?name=Nick” in a browser like chrome, tweak your JS in acrobat until you find something that works, and then cross browser test. I say chrome, but you should check compatibility with your primary browsers before getting very far.
