Print to Nitro Creator 2

If you use an application that can print files, then you can also use that application to create PDF documents. Nitro Creator 2 is included in Nitro Pro 7, and is a virtual printer that enables you to create a PDF file from any application capable of printing. Nitro Creator 2 is ready to use without requiring any configuration, and is automatically installed to your Windows printer manager.

To print a document to Nitro Creator 2

Open the document you wish to convert in its authoring program. For example, a Word document in Microsoft Word, or online content in your web browser.
Most applications have a Print command in the File menu. Select it, or press Ctrl+P.
From the printer list, choose Nitro Creator 2, and then confirm that you wish to print. The Create PDF dialog opens.
Do the following:
- Enter a name and location to save the PDF file
- If you want to save the document details and customize advanced settings (explained below) as the PDF is being created, click Prompt for Document Properties
- Specify whether you want the PDF to be opened automatically after it is created
Click Create

TIP: To append your document to an existing PDF file, save the new PDF file to the same folder and file name as the original PDF document. Nitro Creator 2 asks you whether you want to insert it at the beginning of the exiting file, add it at the end, overwrite the original file, or cancel.
