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 Notebook page.
During Notebook 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 SMART Notebook rather than on paper. Therefore, any application
that supports printing can be the file source for this function. 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. Although this feature
was previously available from within Notebook, it is not available any longer.
To import files via the Notebook Print Capture driver:
1 Activate SMART Notebook and open the Notebook file (.nbk extension) that will
receive the file.
2 Switch to the source application of the file you want to import.
3 Open the file you want to print to the Notebook file.
