New EICR - editable PDF certs

Mark_Burgess · Jun 12, 2012

I am sure that some people using an iPhone or iPad for these certs, had a problem with emailing them to a customer but they were still editable.
I am using an app called PDFReader Pro, they have done some updates recently to our favour, when the cert has been filled out there is a send via email button, upon selecting that there is 3 choices. The third choice is Flattened Copy, that sends the customer a Un-Editable PDF.

A couple of amendments.

Both the single board and multiple board EICR's now have an area under your logo at the top to put your address. For some reason or other, when inserting a report number in the multiple board pop up screen, it adds it to the area to put your address, just overwrite it with your address or do not add a report number on the pop up screen.

The section on page 5 where you input your test instrument details, has now been modified to allow more text characters and multi line.

Cheers Mark, it would appear this may have been from my observations, much appreciated either way! ;-)

I noticed the comment you put about them so made the changes, unless I get feedback from people like your self, the little things like that wont get sorted.

Thanks Mark - Is there any way you can put the header in page 3 EICR - to include 'Item No', 'Classification Code' and Further Investigation Required'? I don't mean to sound picky, but without the heading they don't really make sense to a customer.

Great work anyway and thanks.

SOLUTION TO EVERYONE THAT CAN NOT SAVE A PDF!!!!!!

The is a freeware program called cutePDF, I have used it in the past, and have just tried it.

Here is the link

CutePDF - Convert to PDF for free, Free PDF Utilities, Save PDF Forms, Edit PDF easily.

Download and install where I have highlighted below.

Untick the toolbar option when it wants you to install.
After it is installed it says it needs to download and install another program that works with it, this is correct and you must do it.

When all done and installed, open the PDF as before ignore the you can not save message and fill out the form, go to FILE >> SAVE AS >>> CutePDF and then print, this should bring up a pop up box of where you want to save it, then voila!! It is done!
