OneNote Printout Manager

Yet another powertoy written by Jeff Cardon (*applause*) that will help you when you are printing a lot of documents to OneNote. I will just let his user guide speak for itself:

Installation:

• Download from here: ONPrintManager.zip
• Run Setup.exe and follow the prompts.
• Run OneNote and click on the following button:

UI and options:

Preview:

Changes made to any of the settings in the dialog are displayed in the preview pane. The preview pane will display up to 3 images per column. An elipses (…) is used to indicate that additional images may appear beneath the current set of images.

Printout size:

The Printout size slider control can be used to adjust the size of the printouts. The size range can be between 1% and 200%. 100% is the default size.

Printouts per page:

Use the Printouts per page option to specify that you want OneNote Printout Manager to separate a given number of printouts onto separate pages. The printouts per page can range from 1 to 99. When this control is checked, OneNote Printout Manager will create a new subpage after it reaches the image representing the value specified and continue execution. Each subpage will have the title of the original page with a sequential number appended to it. If the original page is untitled, OneNote Printout Manager will attempt to obtain the text inside the first printout on the page and use for the title. See Additional information below.

Set printouts as background:

Use the Set printouts to background option to set the printouts to be background images instead of floating images. When a printout is set to be a background image the printout is anchored to the page and notes can be added on top of the image without it moving or becoming selected.

Columns per page:

Use the Columns per page setting to determine the number of columns per page to organize your printouts in. The printouts are laid out in order from left to right. e.g. printout image #1 will appear in column 1, printout image #2 will appear in column 2, etc. Once the number of columns is reached, OneNote Printout Manager will repeat the process in the next row. e.g. printout image #3 will appear in column 1, printout image #4 will appear in column 2, etc.

Spacing between printouts:

Use the Spacing between printouts setting to specify the amount of space you want OneNote Printout Manager to put between each printout. The amount of space indicated will be used for both horizontal and vertical spacing. The value is expressed in points, where there are 72 points per inch.

Margins:

Use the Margins settings to specify the top and left margins. These values are expressed in points, where there are 72 points per inch.

Save current settings as default:

Use Save current settings as default to remember any changes you make for the next time you run OneNote Printout manager

Additional information.

Undo is not fully supported with this utility. You’ll find that making simple sizing, margin, spacing, columns or background changes to the printouts on a single page can be undone. However, organizing printouts onto separate pages cannot be fully undone. Therefore, a mechanism to restore your page to the last state before running the utility is provided using the Restore utility. This utility (restore.exe) is located in the install folder where you initially installed OneNote Printout Manager. You can simply run Restore.exe to restore the original page back to the section you are currently viewing.

This is great for those people who have been asking for this on the newsgroups as well as the many students who use OneNote. Hope you enjoy and once again thank you to Jeff Cardon who developed & tested this, nice work Jeff!

Dave Tse has created a really cool OneNote Web Exporter and released it via CodePlex (MS Open Source)…

What is this for?
The OneNote Web Exporter allows you to export a OneNote notebook as html files that anybody can view through a web browser.

How does it work?
You give it a OneNote 2007 Notebook and it will generate an html page and a folder containing all of the notebook data.

What can I do with it?

• Export a notebook when you need to send it to somebody who doesn’t have OneNote 2007
• Maintain a browser accessible version of your notebook by scheduling a daily export to a SharePoint server

Rob Bushway…

When I saw Warner’s post this morning about the new Send To OneNote 2007 Powertoy, I was a little disappointed that it did not print the file to OneNote. It does send the file as a shortcut to OneNote, but it wasn’t what I was really after. Being a heavy OneNote user on my Tablet PC, I’m always looking for some short-cuts to get documents and stuff printed into OneNote.

So, I went off on a goose chase to figure out how I could easily add a OneNote 2007 printer as a Send-To option, and I figured it out! Having this option will allow you to right click any printable file, go to the Send To option, and choose the OneNote 2007 Printer.

 GBM How-To: Add OneNote 2007 Printer as Right-click Send To option

The Unknown OneNote Guy is starting to use PowerShell (Windows command line scripting) and seeing ways how he could use OneNote 2007 with it.

I’m sure he has more up his sleeve, but the key point that made me laugh today was that it can output to printer and OneNote 2007 installs a printer driver called “Send To OneNote 2007″ so…

Any application that can output to a printer can “Send to OneNote”.

And here is his “powertoy”

I’m making light of this, but for a reason… How many of us are holding out for some really cool “Send To” PowerToy from our favorite app, when we could just use the print driver and image searching in 2007?
