This is a multi-function window that not only allows you to print your processed files to paper but also allows you to publish them to, Microsoft Word or to PDF using the integrated SpecsIntact PDF or Adobe Acrobat. It also provides access to the quality checking Reports designed to make the project letter perfect.
Click the tabbed commands on the image below to see how to use each function.

Process Only

Save Settings

If you want to save some but not all settings, make the ones you want to save first, use the Save Settings button, and then make the additional selections that you don't want to save.
