I have a bus ticket in my outlook email that I need to print out. As I don't have a printer I am trying to save it to a USB memory stick so I can take it up to the postoffice and ask them to print it out.
No matter what I do it will not save to the stick. Have googled How to......... Their instructions don't make sense to me.
Any ideas please

It came through as an email. Not sure. If it had been an attachment I could have downloaded but no. Do I have your email address?

Checked it out again. Doesn't tell me what sort of file it is. Just a straight email. No don't have your email address.

You can try printing it as an XPS. that should be a default windows printer. It doesn't actually print but saves it as a file instead. Then you should be able to save that as a jpg.

If you can send me a copy of that bus ticket and your boarding pass for the flight to New Zealand, I would be happy to work on it for you

Marj, If you need to 'print' a file you can download a free program (very small) called 'cutepdfwriter'.
When you hit print, you select cutepdf as your printer and it saves the file as a pdf which can be opened by any computer.
Cheers
Patto.

Thanks everybody. I took my USB stick up to the local Aus Post this morning and they were able to print out the ticket for me, no charge. They also banked a cheque into my Commbank which I received from the passport office as I had overpaid. I didn't know they could do that but thought I would ask and yes they were able to do it for me. Saved a 100k round trip to Childers to the bank.
