ScanSoft PDF Create! Properties dialog box

This gives you full control over the conversions. In the General panel you

define page size, orientation, resolution for the PDF, choose whether or

not to view it after creation and choose a grayscale or color PDF. The

PDF Settings panel lets you define the PDF version, control font

embedding, set compression types and severity, define passwords and

add watermarks. It gives you choices for naming the created PDF file(s)

and defining properties such as title, author, subject and keywords. The

created file(s) can also be directed as attachments to an E-mail message,

ready for distribution.

The ScanSoft PDF Create! Properties dialog box can be accessed from the

Print dialog box in your

applications. When working from the Create

Assistant or Windows Explorer, these settings are made through the

profiles. If you need to access these settings from Microsoft Word,

choose File/Print instead of the Create PDF button.

How to overlay PDF files

Overlay options let you place artwork or other fixed items onto just the

first page of your PDF files, together with items that change from file to

file. Overlay example for a cover page:

Page 1 of a multi-

page document

Cover page of

resulting PDF file

Single-page file with

repeated elements

To have this result, deselect the option 'Repeat the last page of the

shortest

document for page overlay'.

You can also use an overlay to add a company logo or other fixed item to

ery page of PDF files you create. To do this select the option named

above.

For more information on overlay choices, please consult Help.
