6 1. Print to PDF PDF Creation Print to PDF Print to PDF using the ScanSoft PDF Create! Printer from any Windows application that can print Use File > New PDF > Create Multiple Files or > Combine Multiple Files Scan to New PDF or Scan to Existing PDF File > Open any MS Office or Image file Use Nuance Toolbars in MS Office Create PDFs from Print dialogs The PDF Create printer appears in your Printer list. Select ScanSoft PDF Create! within the printer selection drop-down menu to create a PDF from the print function of any Windows application. You can specify a page range and other print settings as desired. Click Properties to check or change PDF Create settings. Click OK to start PDF creation. By default, the Save As dialog appears to Prompt for File Name, but you can use automated saving instructions under Properties/PDF Settings.

7 ScanSoft PDF Create! Properties dialog box The ScanSoft PDF Create! Properties dialog box contains three tabs General, PDF Settings, & About PDF Create. The General tab allows you to define attributes of the PDF like page size, orientation and resolution.

8 The PDF Settings tab allows you to choose the version of PDF, control fonts within the PDF, select specific compression settings, set security options, and add watermarks. When choosing the version of PDF, one of the options is the ISO Standard PDF/A, also known as PDF/Archival. If you are using unique fonts outside of Windows TrueType fonts, you can choose to embed those fonts within your PDF files. This will assure that your PDF always display exactly as you have designed them, independent of your recipient s computer. Medium Quality (level 50) is recommended when your PDF will be primarily viewed on the screen, whereas Lossless (level 100) is best if your PDF files will be used for hi-res printing. ecopy PDF Pro Office supports all of the latest industry standard security and encryption features of PDF. You can choose the permissions you want to grant the recipients of your PDF files, or lock them down completely by selecting No Modifying.

9 NOTE: The Font, Compression and Security Settings offer finer level controls within the Advanced button. For example, the Advanced button for security controls allows you to secure files by requiring a password to open the document, as well as set permissions allowing or restricting printing, copying/extracting, annotating/editing, and/or others changes to the document. You have the option of editing Document Settings when you save your PDF, defining Document Properties such as title, author, subject and keywords. You can also set your Open Options so that your PDF opens in a specific Magnification, Page Layout and select Navigation Panels.

10 The ScanSoft PDF Create! Properties dialog box can be accessed from the Print dialog box in your applications. When working from the Create Assistant or Windows Explorer, these settings are made through the profiles. If you need to access these settings from Microsoft Word, choose the Links button in the Nuance Toolbar in MS Word, Excel or PowerPoint and then use the Create PDF button. PDF Create Assistant The PDF Create Assistant is an applet or wizard that installs with the main application that gives casual users easy access to all of the advanced PDF Create features. The PDF Create Assistant lets a user compile a list of files from most popular applications, and users have the option of combining files in a given order to create a single PDF, or for simple Batch PDF creation to generate a separate PDF for each file. A set of files can be gathered into a single PDF Package. You can apply an Overlay to your PDF such as a simple Border or Watermark, or a Notice such as Confidential, or you can include dynamic information such as time and date and page numbers when using the PDF Create Assistant.. Users can Drag n Drop MS Office and Image files into the PDF Create Assistant, with options to create separate PDF files for each file, combine files, add Overlays or create PDF Packages. PDF Create Profiles provide one-click selection of advanced PDF Create Settings, including Security settings and other options. You can also access PDF Create options from the main menu in ecopy PDF Pro Office, select New PDF from the File menu. the Create PDF dialog box appears. Choose Create Multiple Files, Combine Multiple Files, or Overlay Multiple Files.

11 Click the Add button to choose files to open, the Delete button can be used to remove selected files from the list, the Up/Down buttons can be used to move selected files up or down in the list, and the Clear button can be selected when removing all files from the list. Note: You can also create new profiles or delete existing ones. For example, if you selected Overlay files as one PDF document, the options available would let you place artwork or other fixed items onto just the first page of your PDF files, together with items that change from file to file. Overlay example for a cover page: Note: You can also use an overlay to add a company logo or other fixed item to every page of PDF files you create.

12 The last step in the process is to click on the Create button in the Create PDF Assistant. The Print info dialog box appears, listing the input/output files and showing the conversion status. Microsoft Office Toolbars ecopy PDF Pro Office provides tight integration with MS Office, providing Toolbars in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Internet Explorer and Explorer (via right-click). The MS Office integration provides full access to all features of the ScanSoft PDF Create printer to generate rich, sophisticated PDF files. You can create rich PDF automatically including Bookmarks, Table of Contents, Links, Comments and Tags. ScanSoft PDF Create builds on the structure of MS Office files to automatically generate corresponding navigation features in the PDF files. ecopy PDF Pro Office Toolbar in MS Word ecopy PDF Pro Office Toolbar in MS Excel and PowerPoint ecopy PDF Pro Office Toolbar in MS Outlook ecopy PDF Pro Office Toolbar in MS Internet Explorer

13 2. Merge Files (Page Assembly) Document Assembly To edit page contents or perform page operations while viewing several pages, activate Document Assembly view in the View menu or click the Document Assembly button at the bottom of your screen. The Document Assembly toolbar lets you insert, replace, extract, delete and renumber pages; split your current document; or work with headers and footers (create, update or remove them).

14 Step 1 Open any multi-page document. Step 2. Select View > Document Assembly. Pages can now be easily shuffled with simple Drag and Drop control. You can right-click on any page and move it to a specific location in the file by choosing Send to Beginning, Send to End, or Send to a specific Page Number. Note: The options to Send to Beginning, Send to End, or Send to a specific Page Number may only be available in more recent point releases of ecopy PDF Pro Office. This view shows small-sized pages, not static thumbnails, so comments can be placed and text selections copied to other pages, because these are live PDF pages. Note: Click on a page number to drag and drop the page to a different location within the document. Step 3. To add additional pages, select the Insert icon and choose additional files or pages to add, or simply drag and drop files, even non-pdf files, into the view. Step 4. Select Page Assembly from the Document Assembly toolbar. Page Assembly allows you to directly insert selected pages from MS Office and Image files. It avoids the need to open multiple instances of the program to insert pages from a set of documents. Each document is displayed in a tab, using page thumbnails. This lets you view documents and drag/drop the desired pages into the target document. A wide variety of file types are supported, and conversion to PDF take places automatically when requires.

15 Step 5. Select the file to open. (Note: Under Files of type: be sure you have selected All Files (*) ) Step 6. Click in the Page Assembly dialog box and select the page (or pages) and drag it over to the already opened file within ecopy PDF Pro Office. If you are working on multiple documents at the same time, click on Window > Tile > Horizontally/Vertically and each document will appear in a separate window pane.

16 3. View Documents Side by Side to Merge Open Multiple PDF in Tiles, Drag and Drop between them As mentioned above, you can open multiple PDF files, and Tile them horizontally or vertically. Open the Navigation Panel and select Pages from the Menu Bar. Also choose Window > Tile > Horizontally or Vertically. You can drag and drop page thumbnails to move pages between PDF files in Tile view.

17 PDF Document comparison This lets you compare two PDF files with similar content - typically an earlier and later version of one document. Access this from the Document menu, then choose to see a visual or a textual comparison, with a side-by-side or combined presentation. The latter shows only one document and marks object or text changes: new text is underlined while deleted text appears in a marker tool tip. PDF to MS Word Document comparison PDF Pro Office is able to compare a PDF file with a particular version of a MS Word file; typically this will be the file the PDF was made from. It can show which changes were made since the PDF was created. The comparison is presented in native MS Word Track Changes, adding PDF files to MS Word s own Comparison feature. PDF splitting You can split large PDF files into a set of smaller segments for Electronic Court Filings with PACER or for restrictions. Choose Document > Split Document to select splitting criteria: by file size, blank pages, number of pages, bookmarks. PDF Portfolios Portfolios let you collect a set of varying file types within a secure PDF file. A portfolio can contain native MS Office and Image file, including folder hierarchy. Package PDF files PDF Create lets you select a set of files and have their copies grouped in a single PDF package file. Any non-pdf files you select enter the package as PDF files. To include non-pdf files in a package in their original format, open a package, open a PDF inside it, and attach these files. You can add a cover page to the package. Refer to Help which explains how different PDF programs let you use and unpack received packages.

18 4. Create Searchable Text File > Save As > Searchable PDF Searchable text can be created easily in ecopy PDF Pro Office. When working with a file, you can simply select File > Save As > Searchable PDF Document > Save. PDF Create Assistant with the Searchable PDF Profile PDF Create Assistant allows you to select a group of PDF or other Image files, and drag and drop those files into the Create Assistant pane. Under Profiles, choose the Searchable PDF Profile, and under the Options pull-down, choose whether you want to create separate Searchable PDF files for each input file, or combine all into one file.

19 5. Applying Markups/Annotations Adding text, callouts and highlighting text is another way to draw attention to content within your document. These editing tools are conveniently located on the ecopy PDF Pro Office toolbar. Step 1. Open up a PDF file. Step 2. Select the type of markup/annotation to be applied. Step 3. Choose the area that the markup/annotation will be applied to. Step 4. After you ve applied a markup/annotation, perform a right-mouse click on it to change the properties. Right-clicking on your annotations will bring up a Properties dialog box allowing you to adjust the attributes of the annotation. For example, the Highlight tool is actually multifunctional. Clicking the drop down option next to it allows you to use an Underline or Cross-Out tools as well. This screenshot depicts the action of highlighting an area of text in a document, performing a right-mouse click once the highlight has been applied, and then using the Highlight Properties dialog box to change the color of the highlight from yellow to another available color. Note: Practice makes perfect! We recommend that you experiment with the various editing tools using the toolbar buttons. This is the best way to familiarize yourself with all available editing options and feel comfortable choosing what option works best for you.

20 Remember, right-clicking on any of your annotations will bring up a Properties dialog box allowing you to adjust the attributes of the annotation. The image below has had various forms of annotations applied, including Highlighted text, a Callout, a Text Box, underlined text, and text that have had a cross-out applied. Search and Markup ecopy PDF Pro Office contains a highly intelligent Looks Like Search capability that enables a user to quickly find content, like phone numbers, addresses, and social security numbers, via an alphanumeric pattern rather than the exact text. This feature can then allow you to automatically redact, highlight, cross-out, or underline search results for faster, easier PDF review and editing. To search based on a pre-defined pattern, follow these steps: Step 1. Open a PDF within ecopy PDF Pro Office. Step 2. Select Edit > Search from the Menu bar. Step 3. Select the Looks Like Search Pattern radio button. Step 4. Select a predefined pattern from the drop-down Menu. Step 5. Click on the Search button.

21 You can also search based on simple words or phrases that you have defined, and can select a dropdown menu to extend your search to options other than the current document. When you select Text Markup > Search and markup, you can use any of the four Search techniques to automatically markup any word, phrase, pattern or collection of terms in a single PDF or an entire Folder of PDF files. Step 1. Click on Text Markup. Step 2. Select Search and Markup. Step 3. Enter search criteria. Step 4. Click on the Search and Markup button.

22 An additional Search dialog box will open providing the search results. For example, if ShareScan was the search phrase used, you would see 9 instances of the word ShareScan appear and would then have the option of selecting all of the instances or only individual instances. Step 5. Click the Markup Type drop-down arrow to select the type of markup that will be applied to the instances selected. Step 6. Click the Markup Selected button.

23 6. White-out / Black-out / Highlight Mark-up Image Files using Drawing Tool You can use the Rectangle tool to Outline, Highlight, White-out, or Black-out images within the document. Step 1. Click on the Line button. Step 2. Select Rectangle. Step 3. Use the mouse to click and drag to select the area that the rectangle will be applied to. After the rectangle has been applied, you can change the attributes of it by selecting the Hand Tool button and clicking on the rectangle itself. Step 4. Perform a right-mouse click on the selected area to access the Properties menu. Within the Display tab of the Rectangle Properties dialog box, you can select attributes such as style, thickness, line color, fill color and opacity.

24 Redaction Redaction with ecopy PDF Pro Office means the permanent removal of sensitive information from PDF files. You can manually Redact any Text or Image contents in a PDF file, or automate the process using Search and Redact. You can choose the Mark Color for Redaction. You can optionally choose to include Overlay Text in your Redaction Mark and enter Custom Text. Redaction Codes are available for FOIA and Privacy Act codes. All of these selections are available and customizable through the Redaction Tool Properties. Step 1. Open a PDF file within ecopy PDF Pro Office. Step 2. Click on Document > Redaction > Mark Redaction. Step 3. Highlight a Text or Image areas in your document. Hovering over this area will display a preview of how the area will look when the redaction is applied. For example, you ll see the area that s been redacted appears outlined as shown below. Step 4. Click on Document > Redaction > Apply Redaction. You can also perform a right-mouse click on the redacted area to access the Redaction Properties dialog box to edit attributes of the redaction. Choose Set Properties as Tool Properties to customize your Redaction.

25 Search and Redact As shown in the screenshot above, you can use the Apply redaction menu item to have all marked items (whether resulting from searches or selection) blacked out permanently. When a redacted document is saved, the program always offers Save As, because you should save the redacted file to a new name. Note: Be aware that once a file is saved with redacted items, there is no way of restoring the removed content it can neither be viewed nor found by searching. If text to be redacted contains typing errors, maybe some sensitive data will not be removed by searching. We suggest that you always check a search-redacted document manually before releasing it. ecopy PDF Pro Office can help businesses in any industry with productivity tools and other features. There are additional functions of the application that address the security concerns around versioning, personal data, and proprietary information. Earlier in this guide, you learned how to use the Search capabilities of the product. You can also use a Search and Redact feature, allowing you to easily find key words or phrases (or you can use the available Looks Like Search Pattern options) and quickly apply redaction to the search results. Step 1. Open a PDF file within ecopy PDF Pro Office. Step 2. Click on Document > Redaction > Search and Redact. Step 3. Enter the search criteria in the Search dialog box. Step 4. Click on the Search and Redact button. The Search dialog box will return all instances of the search words or phrases you entered. You can then select the instances to be marked for redaction.

26 Step 5. Click on the Select All button or select individual instances of search results. Step 6. Click on the Mark Selected Results for Redaction button. Step 7. Select Document > Redaction > Apply Redaction Use the Apply dialog box to review specific PDF components to permanently remove the marked contents and annotations. Note: When you Apply Redaction, you will be prompted to perform the Inspect Document function. This function is usually referred to as Metadata Scrubbing in law firms. If you think of Redaction as permanently removing sensitive information that you see on the screen, Inspect Document removes all of the other sensitive information in a PDF file. You can choose to remove Bookmarks, Comments, Document Attachments, Deleted Content, Destinations, Embedded Thumbnails, Form Fields and Actions, All Javascript, Links and Metadata. Best practice is to perform a Save As to create a new PDF, because the new PDF not only has sensitive information removed, but the new PDF after Save As never included the sensitive information.

A folder selection is also possible. To include any files currently open in PDF Pro Office, choose Include the opened documents box.

32 10. Connecting to Applications SharePoint and Other DMS Support PDF Pro Office displays a toolbar and menu for each detected and supported Document Management System (DMS).
