Filtering Folder Contents

You can create a filter for a root folder to show only specific documents in the document browser. When you do this, users are prevented from inadvertently printing unwanted documents, because they can print only those documents that are displayed. For example, if you want to allow users to print only those documents in the folder that include the word "synthetic," you can create a filter for the folder by typing synthetic in the File Filter field of the Root Folders property page.
