export my contact list to a PDF file

How do I export my contacts list to a PDF file? I want to do this as a backup and also to print out a hard copy. The articles I've read say to click on "all contacts" then click on "export as PDF." But there is no "all contacts" on the left menu. My Contacts is V 9.0 (1697.10).

iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), OS X El Capitan (10.11.5)

You actually "print" to a PDF (choosing it in the print dialog box)

see "Print Lists" section

Try Edit (menu) > "Select All"

where it also mentions the "missing" choice on the left
