To help solving problems, PDFCreator logs information to the Windows event log. You can open the event log by clicking on Open Event Log. You can set the logging level to filter the importance (and consequently the quantity) of the notifications. For example Off would turn off the logging. Debug would be the log level for troubleshooting. If you have to contact our support, feel free to add the information logged on this level. Error is the default log level. It is important to note that a low logging level can have an impact on the performance of PDFCreator Server. It is recommended to set it to Warn or higher for normal use.
The feature to copy failed print jobs allows the storing of important printing files after a failed print attempt. After activation via the CheckBox, a main folder can be specified where those failed print jobs get copied to. Every failed job will be collected in a folder named after the profile it was run from. The saved print files are known as “.ps” (PostScript) and are used by printers to do a print. With the help of PDFCreator and the PS file, this print can be rerun.
To share, sync or simply store your settings, you can extract and save them to an INI-file by clicking on Save settings to file. To import settings, click on Load Settings from file and navigate to the INI-file you would like to load.
