Tear Sheet Help

I just ran a backtest and I was able to create a tear sheet in the research notebook, is there any way I can create a pdf...or something that is easier to look at then in the research environment?

For reference I used:
get_backtest(backtest_id)
create_full_tear_sheet()

to create my tear sheet.

Thanks!

In the toolbar you can export the NB to html and then you can save that as a PDF.

Also, this is kind of hidden, if you click in the margin of a notebook cell output, the cell will completely expand. I review tearsheet that way, so the result is taking the full screen, not in a little scrolling window.

Thanks Dan, I could never understand how to do that in Jupyter notebooks until now! That was a huge tip!

Hi, I understand this post is quite old, but has anything changed since about exporting notebooks? I can't find export in the toolbar ..
Thank you

All I do is go into Notebook > Print Preview then use command P and click on the option to save as pdf when it pops up

Jamie, thank you. Got it. I tried to get it done while in full backtest's notebook and couldn't figure out how. When I moved over to Notebooks tab in the Q's Research menu and found corresponding backtest notebook there, that was similar to Jupyter.
Thanks again!
