Hi Stephen, I experimented with a few different ways to create a single downloadable version of the survey for planning/draft purposes and it's doable. The best way I found is to export it as a single Word doc from Qualtrics and then do a little clean up of it in Word. We can send it with the announcement email but we'll need to be clear that they'll need to use the online version to fill in and submit their responses so that we can incorporate their responses. As far as giving an institution a copy of their responses, there is an option in Qualtrics that when the survey ends to redirect them to a single response report which is essentially their institution's responses. I'll change the test version to that so we can try it out.
