  2. From the Export menu, select PDF.
  3. Follow the prompts for page selection and other options.

Depending on the number of topics included in the export, it might take several minutes to create the PDF. Once the export is complete, you can download the PDF.

How can I access the rest of the documentation about TrueSight products?

The TrueSight Presentation Server integrates with several products in the TrueSight line. You can quickly search for and access specific topics in those documentation sets from Related-TrueSight-product-documentation.

What is the difference between the base and extended repositories?

The base and extended repositories contain different sets of KMs and monitoring solutions. For the complete list, see Monitoring-solutions.
