Any time you see a Print Preview, you can spread your finger and thumb on the image and it will immediately convert into a PDF file that can be emailed or uploaded to Dropbox. Jeff’s Favorite Tip from ABA TECHSHOW: Better zoom.  When you want to zoom, instead of doing a reverse-pinch with both fingers, hold one finger down on the page (the thumb works well) and then just move the other finger back and forth to zoom in and out (the pointer works well). https://www.iphonejd.com/iphone_jdSupport the showBrett Burney from http://www.appsinlaw.comJeff Richardson from http://www.iphonejd.com
