Create PDFs from Print dialogs
The Print dialog box appearing in your print-capable applications will
include a PDF Create printer driver. Load a file you want to make a PDF
from, then select File/Print. Select ScanSoft PDF Create! as the name of
your printer. Specify a page range and other settings as desired. One PDF
file is created; the number of copies value is ignored. Click Properties to
check or change PDF Create settings. Click OK to start the creation. By
default the Save As dialog appears, but you can give automated saving
instructions under Properties/PDF Settings.
Use the PDF Create Assistant
The Assistant is called from the Windows Start menu. It lets you
compile a list of files to be converted. These files may have been created
in different applications. Choose to combine the files in the given order
to create a single PDF file or have each file converted separately. You can
package a set of files into a single PDF. Files can also be overlaid for the
conversion. The Assistant lets you use profiles to control the PDF
creation. Profiles contain a group of settings designed for a particular
outcome. The program includes seven profiles; you can create more for
your own needs. Help explains how to do this.
