The BMC Documentation portal gives you the ability to generate PDF and Microsoft Word documents of single pages, and to create PDF exports of multiple pages in a space.  

You can create a PDF of a page or a set of pages. (Non-English page exports are not supported.) You can also create a Word document of the current page.

To export to PDF or Word

  1. From the Export menu in the upper-right, select a format:
    • Export to PDF to export the current page or a set of pages to PDF
    • Export to Word to export the current page to Word format

  2. If exporting to PDF, select what you want to export:
    • Only this page to export the current page
    • This page and its children to export a set of pages

For example, selecting This page and its children from the home page exports the entire space to PDF.
