Conversion to PDF

PRISMAdirect can automatically convert non-PDF files into PDF files when you integrate Neevia Document Converter Pro into PRISMAdirect. You have to purchase and install Neevia Document Converter Pro, then you have to configure PRISMAdirect. You can install Neevia on:

  • The PRISMAdirect server

    Neevia converts any non-PDF files in orders created by the operator. When the web server runs on the server, then Neevia also converts any non-PDF files in orders submitted by the customers.

  • Each remote web server where you want to use automatic conversion

    Neevia converts any non-PDF files in orders submitted by the customers.

Merge PDF files

The automatic merge service merges two or more PDF files into one PDF file. For example, two or more PDF files are automatically merged when you view a job with multiple PDF files.

Preflight operation

A preflight operation is a quality check of your document.

The setting [Preflight processes:] is part of the procedure to configure the preflight workflow. For the complete procedure, see Configure the preflight workflow.
