Save a copy of meeting documents or any file

You can access all documents for meetings from the relevant shared area but, if you want to make any notes on the documents please save your own copy first so that the master copy remains clean. 

Because of the rules placed on the REF Hub you can't use the Create a Copy function so we suggest using this method to create your own copy.

Save a copy of any Microsoft Office file (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)

Open the document from the shared area Hold down the CTRL key on a Windows device (or command on a Mac), on your keyboard, and press A, (this will select all the text in the document) Copy the text, (right click and click on Copy or press CTRL + C on Windows, and command + C on a Mac)
Create a new file of the same file type (i.e. Word doc, Excel spreadsheet) Paste the content in to the new file The document will automatically save in your My Files area but you can click at the top to change the file name

Save a copy of a PDF
