Converting jpeg photos to PDF

Yesterday I had a student come in to print several posters of jpeg files from his email, but for those that are new at the SMDC, the SMDC only prints posters through PDF format so in order to do this I showed him that you could open the file in Photoshop then change size to anything you want then finally save as Adobe PDF. Then once he had the PDFs he needed to save them onto a USB drive which is also a policy of the SMDC.

Eventually we will get to the point during this semester where many students will need to print posters and when that happens just make sure they have the file saved as a PDF on a USB drive .If they do not have a USB the SMDC offers two in library use only ones. Once you have the USB with the file inform a staff member and they will inspect the file then do the print. Also we have instructions on how to convert a powerpoint into a pdf from both a MAC and PC. Its on the Guides and Manuals folder of the multimedia drive(U).
