How it works?ΒΆ

  • HotFolder monitors a selected folder on your file system.

  • Each HotFolder is assigned to a dedicated PDFCreator printer.

  • Every file placed in the folder is converted by PDFCreator using the selected profile.

  • The full feature set of PDFCreator is available, and with automatic saving enabled, the entire process can be fully automated.

  • After conversion, the output files are saved in the target directory defined in the assigned profile.

  • The source file is either moved to a specified folder or sent to the recycle bin.

  • Files that cannot be converted are preserved in another designated folder.

  • Filters allow you to exclude specific file types.

  • HotFolder can be configured to automatically start and monitor folders on Windows Start.
