Print version (Questionnaire editor)


For future reference, for testing or for proof-reading purposes, you may sometimes want to print the questionnaire so you can view all of the text in its entirety. EFS provides an HTML version of the questionnaire which is optimized for this kind of situation.


Overview

  • The entire contents of the questionnaire will be displayed in a neutral print design which is independent of the layout settings you selected. For EFS 9.1, the print design has been overhauled. In particular, the content is now arranged more clearly and the questions are aligned on the left hand.

  • In multilingual projects, you can specify the display language of the questionnaire.

  • Optionally, the page ID can be displayed as a clickable link: It takes you directly to

    the page view of the questionnaire editor.

  • Another optionally-displayed link (L) allows you to switch directly to the language editor.

  • Additional information such as filters or pretest comments can be displayed as well, if necessary.

The “Responsive layout” question types newly introduced from EFS 10.0 onwards are mapped to their basis question types. I.e. “Single response list with icons” and “Star rating” are displayed like a vertical single response list, the “Responsive lay- out” slider is displayed as a question type 911.
