The SMART Notebook software allows you to use the SMART Podium units in your classroom as a whiteboard. While it has several features, the most basic use is writing on the screen and saving those notes to a PDF file.

To access the SMART Notebook, click on the SMART Notebook icon.

While in the SMART Notebook software, it’s important to use the SMART Podium’s pen with the controls.  Clicking them with the mouse will result in the ink color, eraser, or other tool being applied to the mouse, not the pen.

To write on the notebook, tap on the pen tool in the toolbar.

To save what you’ve drawn, choose Export As, then PDF… from the File menu.  The PDF options dialog will come up. Since the SMART Podium is wider than it is long, you may want to set it to Landscape mode.  Click on the PDF Setup tab.
