Configure Save Options is available when clicking the same named button from the Save window . You can set the folder where the PDF files will be saved after generation and also add file-naming macros to automatically name the generated PDF.
Folder
In the Folder field you can set a folder where the files will be saved. The path will be remembered for the next save operation even if you have selected the Prompt Save As dialog in the Save window.
File name
You can manually type a name for the generated PDF file in the File name field or use Macro to automatically name the PDF file created.
In order to use different file names for each generated PDF files, you can use some macros in the File name field (an example of how the macros are converted is shown just below the File name field).
You can select any of next macros:
· | [YMD] - Date in the format YYYYMMDD (year, month, day) |
· | [Y] - Year in the format YYYY |
· | [M] - Month in the format MM |
· | [D] - Day in the format DD |
· | [HIS] - time in the format hhmmss (hour, minute, second) |
· | [H] - Hour in the format hh |
· | [I] - Minute in the format mm |
· | [S] - Second in the format ss |
· | [C] - Counter in the format cc (it begins with 01 and increases at each printed document, if a file with the same name exists in the save folder) |
If you selected the Use predefined setting radio button on the Save window but you did not enter a folder or a file name, you will be prompted with the Save As dialog when printing to the novaPDF. If you choose a folder that does not exist, it will be automatically created.
When file exists
This option is only displayed when you select Use predefined setting from the Save window and is not shown for the Prompt Save As dialog option. When a file with the same name already exists in the selected folder, you can choose one of the next actions:
· | Prompt Query Dialog - a "Save as" dialog will be shown so you can change the name of the file or folder manually |
· | Auto number new - a counter is added to the file name of the new generate pdf file |
· | Auto number existing - a counter is added to the file name of the existing pdf file. The new pdf file will have the name set in this dialog |
· | Append Date/Time - the date and time is appended to the generated pdf file name |
· | Overwrite - existing file is overwritten with the new generated file |
