Root Folders Property Page |
This property page displays the root folders that are configured for your network. These folders contain the BarTender documents that you want users to access and print by using Print Portal. This page is displayed by default when you first open the Administrative Setup page, and you can also access it by clicking the Root Folders tab.
By default, this page displays a folder for the document templates that are included with BarTender and a folder for documents that are stored in Librarian. You can create any number of additional root folders and subfolders to contain and organize your documents.
When you create a root folder, it is displayed in the navigation pane on the Print Portal Home page, and any subfolders and BarTender documents within that folder are displayed in the document selection pane on the Home page.

You can limit root folder visibility to certain users or groups. To do this, you must first enable authentication for Print Portal. For more information, refer to Enabling Print Portal Authentication. |
