Language
The next two windows give you the
option to select a number of different languages to be installed to the
program’s interface, and from that list you can set a default language. Unless
you’re multi-lingual, or a person using another language is going to have
access to your computer, then you can simply leave this set to English.

you.

Once you’ve received your licence you
need to go to Start > Control Panel > Printers. In the Printers window,
right-click ‘novaPDFLite v7.6’ and select ‘Printing Preferences.’ In the next
window go to the ‘About’ tab and press the ‘Register’ button. In the Register
window, just copy and paste the registration details included in your email.

preferences
Check
on the preferences
Before you start to create your PDFs,
you may wish to check on the preferences. By default, the program is set to
create files in the US Letter format. If you wish to change this to the more
UK-friendly A4, or any other page size, then you can do so from the same
Printing Preferences window that you used to enter the licence details.

NovaPDF works seamlessly in most
programs that feature a printing option. Here I’m using Office Word to create
and invitation for a surprise birthday party I’m planning. I want to have this
invitation professionally printed once it’s been converted to a PDF, to be sent
to the printers via email. This is all easy to do directly from my desktop.
Print
Go
ahead and print
Once you’re happy with your finished
document, you can go ahead and print. Much like your standard printing option,
by holding down [CTRL] and [P] you’ll open the Print window. Checking that the
novaPDF option is selected, click on ‘OK’ and you’ll open another window where
you can choose where on your computer you want to save the PDF file.
Send
Send
it to friends via Facebook or similar
Now that you’ve successfully created
your PDF, you’ve free to distribute the file any way you see fit. If your
PDF-reading software has the option, you can quickly attach it on an email.
Alternatively you could send it to friends via Facebook or similar. As I want
to have the invite professionally printed, I’m using this option to email it
directly to the printers.
