OneNote is a convenient tool for doing research, taking notes, and organizing information. Occasionally, you might want to share these notes with someone else, but you don't want the recipient to make changes to your content.

Instead of using OneNote's Share feature, you can save a notebook as a PDF instead. OneNote lets you share the entire notebook as a PDF, just a section, or even a single page.

Keep in mind that if you update a notebook, the changes will not be reflected in the PDF. You should also be careful to select just the part of the notebook you want to save as a PDF – if you only intend to save a page as a PDF but save an entire section, for example, you might share information you didn't mean to with someone.

If you're ready to share your OneNote notebook as a PDF, here's how to do it.
