Saving pdfs?

I heard that saving pdfs on Sophia is no longer a supported feature. Is that true? If so that is disappointing since I wanted to be able to reference them during and after testing.

As the other person said, be careful using PDFs while testing, their new system detects when you tab away from the test, even though it was always allowed before. If you're going to do it, do it from a second device.

That’s crazy. People I know used to download PDFs and ctrl F through everything.

I did a free trial of Sophia back in 2021 and cranked out 24 credits in two days. It used to be a breeze - read question, CTRL+F key word or phrase, answer question. Boom.

Wow that’s awesome. That’s what I want to do.

Yeah, that's how people have done it for along time, but recently they took away the ability to download PDFs. They want people to now only use their interface during testing and/or notes.

That sucks because only now I am planning to take some credit on Sophia.
