After generating an exam, and configuring the Title Sheet, Header and Footer, it is important that you preview the exam prior to saving it.
In the Examinees’ Printouts panel, click the Exam Paper link. The exam will open. You can preview how it will look on paper by selecting File – Print Preview from the Firefox browser menu. The exam will open in simulated A4 size pages, in the same format that you would see if you printed it to paper. You can further configure the page (margin, headers and footers) by clicking on the Page Setup button on the Firefox menu (File – Page Setup) and adjusting the settings from the pop-up dialogue box.
From the Print Preview, you can select Print (to make a paper print) or Close. We recommend you print to a PDF file first. This locks the formatting and provides you with an electronic copy of the exam and the answer sheet. You can save these electronic copies in a filing system on your computer. You will need a PDF writer software loaded on your computer. There are several free and premium versions available.
When you select File – Print (or ctrl-P) on the Firefox menu, you will see the PDF printer option to select.
You can preview the Answer Grid Sheet (Blank) in the same manner as described above. This Answer Grid sheet does not have the Examinee’s names at the top of each page. You will need to print one for each examinee. The examinee will write their own name in the box provided at the top of the page, prior to commencing the exam.
You can preview the Answer Grid Sheet with Names in the same manner as described above. This prints one answer grid sheet for each Examinee who is registered for the exam. This is necessary if you will use REMARK OFFICE to automatically mark the exam papers.
From the Examiners’ Printout panel, you can preview the Answer Grid (filled), Exam Paper (with answers) and the Attendance Sheet prior to printing, in the same manner as described above.
