Watchfolder settings

The Watchfolder is a local or network folder where scanned PDF and TIF documents can be placed temporarily. The folder is monitored at set time intervals and any documents found are imported automatically into PDF Manager.

A local directory or a network location can be selected for the folders. For network locations, each user should specify a unique folder location.
