Completing the following is the only method
of running the program in Windows Vista with “UAC” enabled.
Step 1, Setup (You will only need to
complete the following one time):
1. Navigate to Start > Control Panel > Printers
2. Right click “PDF QuickConverter Pro” and select “Run
as Administrator” > “Open.”
3. In the printer window, click “Printer” and select
“Properties.”
4. Click the “PDF Settings” tab
5. Click the dot that states “Save PDF Documents as a
file in specified directory”, and choose the directory you
would like to save your documents to underneath.
6. Click “OK” and close the printer window.
Note: If you don’t see a “PDF
QuickConverter Pro” printer within the printer control panel,
please open a new support case.
Step 2, Using Quickstart “PDF”
printer when Vista “UAC” is enabled (“UAC” is enabled by
default):
In order to save a
document in PDF format, you must run whatever program it is that
you’re saving from, in Administrator mode.
For example: If
you want to convert a “Microsoft Word” document to “PDF” format,
you must run “Microsoft Word” in Administrator mode.
How to run a
program in Administrator mode:
Instead of
double-clicking a program icon, you must right click it and
select “Run as Administrator.” The “UAC” dialog box will then
appear asking if you would like to allow the action; click
“Allow.”
You must perform
this action whenever you would like to convert a document to
“PDF” format.
Note: You can
right click and select “Run as Administrator” on any program
icon whether it resides within a folder, on your desktop, or in
the “Start” menu.
Step 3, Saving a document in “PDF”
format:
1. Within whatever program you’re converting from
(i.e.: Word, Excel, Internet Explorer) click “File” and select
“Print.”
2. Within the printer dialog box,
select “PDF QuickConverter Pro” as the printer.
3. Click “Print” or “OK” or whatever
button will start the print job.
4. The document should now be saved
as a “PDF” in the selected directory you chose, from the “Setup”
instructions above.
If the steps above do not resolve your
problem, please open a new support case.
