Capturing Entire Files with Print Capture
Print Capture allows you to print entire multi-page files from other Windows applications to
the end of the current Notebook file. All the pages of the imported file can be immediately
viewed
−
one printed page per page of the current Notebook file.
During Notebook software installation, a print driver called the SMART Notebook Print
Capture driver will be installed on your system. This print driver functions like any other
printer, except that its output is captured in a Notebook file rather than on paper. You can
configure the SMART Notebook Print Capture driver output properties as you would any
other printer.
NOTE
:
You can only activate Print Capture from the source application.
To import files via the Notebook Print Capture driver:
1
Open the SMART Notebook (.nbk) file in which you want to append the print-captured
file.
2
Switch to the source application of the file you want to capture, and open that file.
3
From this application’s
Print Setup
command (or equivalent), select the
SMART
Notebook Print Capture
from the list of supported printers.
4
Activate the
command.
5
Switch to the Notebook file.
The selected file will appear appended on to the current Notebook file
−
one printed
page per Notebook software page.
