Preparing your word processed Document for Conversion to PDF (Portable Document Format)
Creation of Files for Conversion and subsequent Submission
- Open the original version of your thesis
- Resave this file and name it 02whole (File > Save As)
- Resave this file and name it 01front (File > Save As)
- This last file only requires the introductory pages of your thesis. Therefore, pages from the beginning of Chapter 1 to the end of the bibliography (or last chapter) are not required and need to be deleted
- Select all the text in the Table of Contents of 01front and press Ctrl + Shift + F9. This key combination will convert in the Table of Contents to text all field information linked to the main body of the document (which has been deleted).
- Save the file (File > Save)
Please note: If after conversion to PDF (following the instructions below) any of these files are larger than 4MB, then split your thesis into smaller size files following the file naming instructions above (in "How do I name my files so they meet ANU ADT file name standards?").
