- Click ‘Save As’ on the menu on the left-hand side of the screen.
- Click ‘OneDrive’ to save it to OneDrive.
- Click the drop down of file formats.
- Select the file format as ‘PDF (*.pdf) from the list of file formats.
- Name the document.
- Press ‘Save’.
- The document has now been converted to a PDF.
Second way:
- First if the Word document you want to convert is currently open, make sure you save the document to your PC and close said document.
- Next, click on the File Explorer in the taskbar at the bottom of your screen.
- Once within the File Explorer application, find the document which you want to convert into a PDF. This can be done by either finding where you saved it or using the Quick Access feature at the top right of the application to search for the documents name.
- Once you find the document you want to convert, right click it and select the option to ‘Convert to Adobe PDF’.
- Once that is clicked it should take you to Adobe Reader in which you can access and edit your now PDF converted document.
