Profiles¶
In the Profile Settings you can define multiple profiles. Each profile contains settings that define the output file and what is done with it (calling actions like: open e-mail or print after saving, etc.). The profile settings are editable during the print job or by starting PDFCreator from the Windows Explorer.
Note
Each profile contains settings for all output formats. The format will be set during the save procedure.
PDFCreator comes with several default profiles, the respective settings can be viewed and edited by selecting the profile from the dropdown. With Rename the profile can be renamed. Remove deletes the selected profile.
