1. Find your PDF and save it to your computer.
2. In ActivInspire select File--->Import---> PDF.
3. Choose your PDF.
4. On the next screen you have a few options. I usually just select "at the beginning of this flipchart" and select OK.
5. Now, the PDF is in Best Fit mode. This means the whole page is shown and now the text is too small to see. If you zoom in or try to make the page bigger, any highlighting or notes you write will not move when you move the page to see the next paragraph or question. To solve this problem, on the top right drop down menu choose Fit to Width.
This will fit your page to the width of the screen and give you a scroll bar on the right. In this mode you are able to highlight, underline, and add anything else you want and it will stay on the words or location it was placed. For example, when I scroll down the page, the highlighting I put on the picture above stays where I want it. Now I can go back and forth between the questions and the text without having to clear the screen.
I hope this helps in testing review! Don't forget that there are plenty of resources on Promethean Planet to help as well as websites such as these:
