  I really like this idea, since I can use Dabble for more than fiction writing - notes for classes, for example.

  Having the option to print each chapter seperately and the whole project at once would help with revisions/editing

  I love Dabble! But I think it would be even better if we could print the project and my notes so I could distribute for editing

  Yes! Not sure what i will do when (if) i get to that stage. I guess you just copy and paste it into word and then print?

  I think if we could export the entire project into something readable, this feature wouldn't be quite as big a priority for people.

  Yes, I also want to be able to print them from the app, without first copy and pasting them into another program.

  Can I add here - export partly and fully to PDF, including notes - it's like printing...
  And it would be really helpful to be able to print note cards in note card form. There are no other programs that I've found that can do that, and it would be awesome.

  I'd like to add printing the plot grid feature as well, with notecards.

  This is kinda crazy that there is no way to print.

  At the very least I'd like to print my notes which I use like note cards. Right now I'm copying the layout under Manuscript to my computer Preview and then printing that. Not very tech efficient.

  I would definitely love to have a printing option! To print each chapter and each thing of notes separately as well as the entire thing in one job would be fantastic and help so much in editing and revising!

  First thing I noticed I cant eliminate pre-slugged Chapter 1 to say Prologue. Also when copied and pasted from another program the print showed up too large. How do I change font and size?

  So, I cannot print the individual chapters as of right now? Bummer.

  It'd be nice if you could print right from the software. Or am I missing something?

  I really need this printed out so my editor can critique

  I have not seen an area that we can print our work. I find it a bit frustrating having to export to word before printing.

  Is there a reason why we can't print? That's kind of a basic thing for writing.

  I have been journaling on Dabble (as well as prepping for NaNoWriMo), and I would like to print out each "novel" when the month is done, so I can delete the online version. Printing is a critical feature, not a deluxe one IMHO.

  The fact that I can't do something as basic as being able to print from Dabble makes me want to drop it. Especially for how much it costs. The exporting feature isn't awesome either the text formats funky. I really hope this basic need gets fixed soon.

  Will we get an update on when this is going to be fixed? Not being able to print makes me wonder if this is even worth it. I love Dabble, but you'd think something as basic as printing would be included. Can we please have some information on this sooner rather than later?

  Why can't we print???? Exporting my WIP, one chapter at a time, just to print is tedious and wastes a lot of time (especially since the formatting is getting screwed up). Makes me consider dropping the subscription altogether and just writing directly in Word.

  Dabble is a useful writing tool, but the limitation of not being able print from this application is completely discouraging. The lack of a print feature, in my opinion, will cause this writing software to become immediately obsolete should some other writing software become available with the print feature.

  Printing project would be great, but I'd really really really love to be able to print my outline for when I'm writing on my AlphaSmart

  The ability to print would save a lot of time. The current method of exporting is quite tedious.

  I try to love Dabble, and there are many things that make it easy to do so. But not being able to either print, export to PDF or in any way get an impression on what a final document or book could look like, is an absolute deal breaker for me. Also, seeing that this feature has first been requested in 2017 and not even got a status update since then, makes it hard for me to believe that this is actively worked on at all...
  
  Unfortunately, this seems to be the only thing hindering me from subscribing after my trial expires...

  I was utterly stunned to find that I couldn't print out any of my chapters from Dabble. There are numerous instances where this capability is critical. it just seems ridiculous to have to cut and paste text from Dabble into Word any time I need to review it more closely.
  
  It looks like requests are going back literally years for this feature.
  
  Please, please, please devote the necessary resources to make this happen!
