Install and Configure PDF Print

The PDF Print extension enables a virtual printer that operates as any other printer on a user's Windows machine.  It allows users to create PDF documents from their native applications, using a standard print function.  If your application can print, you can save that print directly into GlobalSearch and avoid the step of having to scan that printed job into GlobalSearch.

Installation and setup of the PDF Print extension requires proper permissions settings in Windows® and in GlobalSearch. Please consult your IT staff for Windows administrative rights to install the PDF Print drivers GlobalSearch. Please consult your GlobalSearch administrator for the proper permissions settings; you must have GlobalSearch View and Add permissions to any Archives you wish to import to.
