In our last blog, we explored how Euna Budget’s Budget Book Studio is changing how government agencies create their annual digital budget book. Today, we focus on a crucial aspect when creating a digital budget book that’s often left out: the ability to export and print high-quality PDF versions of your budget book. Despite the trend among many government agencies to go digital-first, there will always be times when physical copies are indispensable, whether for council meetings or public distribution. Our latest print capabilities ensure that your budget books look just as impressive in print as they do online.

Digital Budget Books that are Print-Ready
At the end of the day, our goal is to enable government budget professionals to create the highest-quality budget book and allow stakeholders and citizens to access and digest that valuable community information in whatever way they prefer. This includes the flexibility to view the budget book online, on mobile, or on a tablet and, of course, as a physical printed copy. When viewing a published budget book, the “Download to PDF” button allows for quick and easy exports. This feature ensures you can generate industry-leading, print-ready PDF books instantly. These PDFs are designed to maintain high visual appeal and clarity, making them perfect for sharing with those who prefer physical copies.
Designed for Web and Print – Because They Aren’t Always the Same!
We understand that not all content translates well between digital and print formats. Digital budget books can include engaging additions like YouTube videos or interactive graphs! However, an explainer video on your introduction page is just not suitable for print. With our new feature, you can mark sections as either web-only or print-only. This flexibility allows you to maintain a single comprehensive book while customizing the content for different formats, eliminating the need for duplicate versions.
PDF Print Preview for Individual Pages
Gone are the days of publishing the entire book just to check the layout of a single page. Our PDF Print Preview feature lets you generate a PDF for individual pages, making it easy to spot and correct issues with spacing, layout, page breaks, and orientation. This streamlines the editing process, ensuring your printed pages look perfect.

This ensures your publication meets the highest standards of accessibility, making it available to all members of your community.
