Using PDF Collaboration:
The typical way to use PDF Collaboration is to share content with others. Sharing sessions can be used
to share the screen (the desktop or application), or to share a PDF document and allow it to be edited.
The workflow to start sharing content is:
1. Double-click on a Friends name from the Gaaiho Collaboration starting window to open the Chat window.
2. The Chat window will be displayed, but the Friend will not be contacted until a message is sent to them. Type
out a message (and/or use the different Chat Tools) and click the Send button to send the message to the
selected Friend.
3. After the message has been sent, the “Screen Share” or “Document Share” buttons can be used to start a
sharing session.
.
To share your screen with the invited Friend:
1. Click the “Start Screen Share” button ( ) to display the “Screen Share Settings” dialog.
2. Select the desired Screen Share Settings, and then click the “Start Sharing” to begin the sharing session.
