A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

depends
are they trying to export a PDF from Microsoft Word? because Microsoft makes that difficult nowadays
Can't you just print and choose "print to pdf" as your "printer"?
you can still do that
it's buggier than it used to be, though
Yup, super difficult. Its not the default, so no one can find it.
Apparently then it is bad for formatting and reading apps for the visual impaired can not pick up sections when they have been pre assigned (but I didn’t test just saw a real, need confirmation)
It's really not... There are several pretty straightforward ways to do it and they're all pretty old standards. Save as > select PDF as the file type. Or if you have Adobe Reader/Acrobat installed, word has a button right under save as that says Save As Adobe PDF. Or you can print to PDF using the Adobe print function in the printers. Lastly windows has a built in PDF printer by default. All of these work pretty damn reliably. If you can't save a PDF from a word doc, it's either your computer or you.
You're showing your privilege lol
When you save an office file to PDF and you are in a OneDrive environment, it doesn't save it locally - it saves it to the cloud, and then downloads it locally. it's fucked up
I'm not going to fault people for having trouble when the "save this file as PDF" option doesnt result in a PDF immediately in the save directory
Interesting considering I can save as a PDF while offline
Apparently work computers are fucked up beyond comprehension
God those must be NASTY to use
if I remember next week, I'll try to save one while offline and see what happens
I can tell you that if I use "save as PDF" while online with onedrive not running (whether because I shut it down or because it crashed and didn't restart itself), the pdf will not show up locally for me
Isn't it just alt,f,e,a?
Control-s save as>pdf is how I do but I’m not professional I’m teen
Still seeing classmates open chrome, search “google” in the search bar, click the link, just to end where they started is infuriating as fuck
