I am on Linux but haven’t needed to use office software in nearly 20 years, how do you access the pdf printer? Is that different from saving as a pdf through the menu?

    You hit print and select the PDF output. It probably works everywhere you can select a printer. Windows also has that, but you have to navigate your way out of OneDrive folders.

    The PDF printer would be accessed via the Print functionality. It’s a virtual device that renders output to a file instead of a physical printer.

    You literally ‘print’ to pdf. Instead of a physical page appearing from the demon box, it will give you a prompt of where to ‘print’ your file. Windows has it too, though I always use the pdf export and not the print. But in a pinch it’s good.
