AlexandraTapestrySupport Posted October 16 Posted October 16 It's now possible to generate a PDF export of your child's learning journal from your own Tapestry account. To do this, you'll need to login to your account on the web (this can't be done on the app) and then click 'Children' (1) on the top bar. On this page you'll see your child or children. Click on your child's name that you'd like to generate the export for (1) and then there are two different ways you can get to the PDF generation. You can either go to the 'Overview' (2) or 'View Journal' page (3). If you've selected the overview, then next you'll need to click on 'Create PDF of [your child's name] journal' (2A). Otherwise, if you've gone to the view journal page, select 'Create PDF of [your child's name] journal' from here (3A). Regardless of which route you've taken, the next page will be the same. On this page you can make selections about what you'd like to PDF to contain. The first option is to select the date range (1). This will default to cover all observations but you can manually change these dates. For example, if you'd like to break down the years into individual PDF's. Next is selecting which observations to include. You can include group observations (2), observations authored by a relative (3), and then choose if you want comments (4) and flags (5) to be visible. Finally, you can choose the text on the cover page (6). Once you've made your selections click on 'Submit' (7). Please note, if your child does not have a photo attached to their account, an outline will appear on the PDF. Please contact your child's setting (school/nursery/childminder) to add a photo before you export the PDF. Once you've submitted, the PDF file will then start to be generated. You can view the progress and finished file by going to your downloads page. This can be accessed through the button on this page (1), or at any time by clicking your name in the top right (2) and then going to 'Your Downloads' (3). Depending on your notification preferences (which you can change by following these steps) you may also receive an email notification to inform you when the download is ready. On your downloads page you'll be able to download a PDF file of the journal (1) and also purchase a printed book of the journal (2). We would strongly recommend to download a copy (1) in any case, as a backup. Please note that this file export will be deleted from your downloads page 90 days after generation. For further details about ordering the book, please take a look at this tutorial. If you have any questions about the above steps you can email us at customer.service@eyfs.info. Or if you have any questions about the content or management of your Tapestry account, please contact your child's setting or school and they will be able to help. Back to Tutorials Page
