Creating Root Folders

A root folder is a directory on your computer that contains one or more BarTender files, including documents, process files, and/or BTXML script files. When you create a root folder, you create a shortcut to that folder from the browser window in Print Station. You initially specify a root folder in the Specify Folder dialog, which is displayed the first time that you run Print Station.

You can create new root folders on the Root Folders property page of the Administrative Setup dialog. You can also restrict folder visibility to users and groups that you select. For more information, refer to Restricting Folder Visibility.
