Convert to PDF

doPDF installs itself as a virtual PDF printer driver once you download and install it.  After a successful installation it will appear in your Printers and Faxes list. To convert document or web page to PDF, you just have to use print command of the document or your browser after choosing doPDF as your default print driver. Open a document (with Microsoft Word, WordPad, NotePad or any other software) or a web page using Internet explorer or any other browser, choose Print and select doPDF. It will ask you where to save the PDF file and when finished, the PDF file will be automatically opened in your default PDF viewer/reader. Screenshot below shows how easy it is to create a PDF file from a web page:

1. Once you install doPDF software in your computer you are ready to save any file in pdf form.  For example if you have to save a web page as pdf file, go to File menu of your browser and select print as shown below.

2. You get print window as shown below.  Select doPDF print icon and click print button found in the bottom.

3. Now you have to select the location where you have to save the generated pdf file and also give a file name using the browse button found in the save window as shown below.

4. That’s it.  Now you have got a pdf file in the location chosen by you.  Open the pdf file using any one of pdf reader such as adobe reader,  foxit reader etc.

Saving web pages as pdf file will always be useful, especially in the case of filling up a form online.  For example when you generate ITR return using Gconnect’s online tool for generating ITR, it will not be possible to save the output i.e the filled up Income Tax return (ITR).  In such cases doPDF will be very much useful.  Just print after you have chosen dopdf as your default print driver.  You will have your filled up ITR-1 or ITR-2 in a form of pdf file which can be saved and printed later.
