Click Add… in the Watched Folders tab or select an existing watch folder and click Configure… . Please note that as long as the folders are switched on, you cannot configure the watch folder. In the Configure Watched Folder dialog, you can specify folder title, source folder, operation schedule, naming method for resulting files, and whether to convert subfolders.

General settings

  • Title. Enter a name recognizable to you. It might not be necessarily identical to the real folder name.

  • Source Folder. This is the pathname of the source folder, in which source files are dropped and automatically converted to PDF.

  • Result, Success, Error. Once you've specified the Source folder above, the Result, Success, and Error folders are created automatically as sub-folders of the Source folder. Adjust the location of each folder by clicking the Browse… button.

    • Result. Result folder keeps all PDF files that have been created.

    • Success. The Success folder keeps the source files that were successfully processed.

    • Error. The Error folder keeps the source files that couldn't be processed successfully.

  • Options (Conversion profiles). Choose a conversion profile in the drop-down list. There are 5 default options – Factory Default, Draft Only, Company Confidential, Publishing Quality, and My Stamp. You can add new and modify existing profiles in Settings .

  • Watch subfolder. If checked, all sub-folders of the Source Folder will be processed. It means files dropped in the subfolders will also be converted to PDF automatically.

Note: all folders must have read/write permission and be accessible to users (could be network clients) who can "Drop" files to the watch folders.

Advanced settings

Click the Advanced tab in the Configure Watched Folder dialog box to access these settings:

  • Remove source files when job is complete. Check this box to remove the source files after PDF creation has been completed (as opposed to moving them to the Success folder).

  • Operation schedule. Check this box if you would like to set an operation schedule for the Watch Folder, namely the conversion service will only be available between the designated Start and Stop times (daily). Please note the schedule does not override the Stop All function.

  • Name resulting file. Add a custom prefix and/or suffix to the file names of result PDFs. A prefix appears at the beginning of file name, and a suffix at the end. For example, a file named "Document" with a prefix of "001" and a suffix of "VOID" will be named "001_Document_VOID."

  • If File exists. Set whether to auto-rename the new file or replace the existing file for all folders (Result, Success and Error).
