===== PDF printing from all programmes =====

Pcc offers you the option of installing a free PDF printer. The installation is a local installation, i.e. the tool must be installed locally on each PC. For the installation it is of course also necessary that a Windows user with installation rights is logged in.

==== Installation ====

In the menu, go to **//Settings/Macros//** and enter the macro "pdf":

{{en:sonstigefunktion:pdfdruck:makro_pdf.png|}}

Start with **//OK//** and the following window opens: 

{{en:sonstigefunktion:pdfdruck:pdfcreator_installieren.png|}}

Tick the box next to **//I accept the licence conditions//** (F2) and confirm again with **//OK.//**

Pcc then offers you the following 2 options: 

{{en:sonstigefunktion:pdfdruck:standart.png|}}

  - The **//standard installation//** installs the printer on the PC. It is valid for all users.
  - The **//Customised installation//** applies to users who are logged in at the time of installation.

Select an option. Information is then loaded from the Pcc server:
