One of them stood out as a topic I had recently started discussing in a past blog post\u00a0(<a href=\"https:\/\/itgroove.net\/oh365eh\/2016\/07\/26\/why-microsoft-onenote-will-never-replace-microsoft-word\/\">Why Microsoft OneNote Will Never Replace Microsoft Word<\/a>), but had not fully explored.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">Here is the listener&#8217;s question:<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><em>\u201cI have One Note on my ASUS notebook. I recently tried to do two things, type a letter &amp; create a resume, I don\u2019t have Microsoft Word, so tried to do both in One Note \u2013 awkward! It printed letter with \u201cuntitled\u201d at top &amp; did not print formatted, same with resume, although it said\u00a0 \u201cResume \u201cat top. Do I need to purchase Microsoft Word or can One Note work for letters &amp; resumes?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">So here we go: <strong>Can OneNote Be Used to Create Print Documents?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">Short Answer: <strong>Yes. For the best results, use OneNote 2016.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">Long Answer &#8211; Why:<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">There are three different versions of Microsoft OneNote. All three versions of OneNote have a Print button. Here&#8217;s where to find it:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>OneNote App &#8211; Hamburger icon &gt; scroll to bottom of Notebook pane<\/li>\n<li>OneNote 2016 Desktop App &#8211; File Tab &gt; 4th button down<\/li>\n<li>OneNote Online &#8211; Print Tab in the Ribbon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/itgroove.net\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2016\/08\/ThreeOneNoteVersions.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1896\" src=\"https:\/\/itgroove.net\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2016\/08\/ThreeOneNoteVersions.png\" alt=\"ThreeOneNoteVersions\" width=\"446\" height=\"149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/regroove.ca\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2016\/08\/ThreeOneNoteVersions.png 446w, https:\/\/regroove.ca\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2016\/08\/ThreeOneNoteVersions-300x100.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 446px) 100vw, 446px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>(If you are not sure which version of OneNote you are using, <a href=\"https:\/\/itgroove.net\/oh365eh\/2016\/08\/22\/what-version-of-onenote-am-i-using\/\">read this blog post for help<\/a>.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">So yes, all three versions of\u00a0OneNote can be used to produce printed materials. However, if you want to produce printed business letters\u00a0or resumes, you will want to use OneNote 2016 because you can:<\/p>\n<ol type=\"1\">\n<li value=\"1\">Remove the OneNote page\u2019s Title and Page Date<\/li>\n<li>Change the OneNote page\u2019s Paper Size to be \u201cLetter\u201d which will match a printed page.<\/li>\n<li>Set the OneNote page\u2019s Print Margins.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">You will not be able to achieve the results you want if you are using OneNote Online or the OneNote App because you cannot do the following in those versions of OneNote:<\/p>\n<ol type=\"1\">\n<li value=\"1\">Remove the OneNote page\u2019s Title and Page Date<\/li>\n<li>Change the OneNote page\u2019s Paper Size to be \u201cLetter\u201d which will match a printed page.<\/li>\n<li>Set the OneNote page\u2019s Print Margins.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">In my opinion, formatting text in Microsoft OneNote will never be as precise as when you are using Microsoft\u00a0Word, so I would use Word for creating business letters and resumes.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">There&#8217;s a reason why OneNote 2016 has an &#8216;Export to Word&#8217; button, however\u00a0using that button\u00a0would require you to have MS\u00a0Word installed on your machine to open the .docx file it creates on your desktop. Now, if you have a Live account (Outlook.com, Hotmail.com), you can\u00a0access Word Online when you login. Just use the Task Switcher &#8216;waffle&#8217; icon, and select Word Online.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><a href=\"https:\/\/itgroove.net\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2016\/08\/Outlookcom-WordOnline.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-1901\" src=\"https:\/\/itgroove.net\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2016\/08\/Outlookcom-WordOnline.png\" alt=\"Outlookcom-WordOnline\" width=\"658\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/regroove.ca\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2016\/08\/Outlookcom-WordOnline.png 962w, https:\/\/regroove.ca\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2016\/08\/Outlookcom-WordOnline-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/regroove.ca\/oh365eh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2016\/08\/Outlookcom-WordOnline-768x407.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 658px) 100vw, 658px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">Word Online is a free version of Word that you use in the internet browser. You need an internet connection to use it. You cannot\u00a0use it offline.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">Word Online works great for light formatting for print letters or resumes. In my opinion, you really only need the paid version of Word if you are looking to do advanced formatting or mail merges, etc. Give it a try and let me know what Word functions are missing in Word Online\u00a0that you wish you had.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I recently appeared as a guest on Tech Talk with tech evangelist Alan Perry , a radio show on radio station CFAX 1070, focused on &#8220;keeping [listeners] current on the latest technology, and help\u00a0[them] overcome any tech issues while keeping hackers and scammers at bay.&#8221; I was asked by my friend and fellow MVP Joel &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/regroove.ca\/oh365eh\/2016\/08\/22\/can-onenote-be-used-to-create-print-documents\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":1901,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[144,150,169,171,173,178,207],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Can OneNote Be Used to Create Print Documents?
