You can send jobs to hot folders previously defined in Account Administration.

Tip:

For a video overview of this function, see: Sending Jobs to Hot Folders and Printers.

Note:

Only users with a Job Manager role can access the Hot Folders panel and send jobs to hot folders.
Before sending jobs to hot folders, make sure that the target hot folders already exist on a computer that you can access.

To send jobs to a hot folder:

In the Jobs or the Orders table, select the jobs that you want to send to a hot folder.
You can send up to 100 jobs at a time.
Drag the selected jobs over , the Hot Folders icon, on the right, and then drop them on an available hot folder.

The transferring status of the job is displayed.

Note:

You can send a job to multiple hot folders.
If the hot folder you dragged the jobs on is disconnected or cannot be accessed, the jobs cannot be sent and you must repeat the action choosing an available hot folder.
Possible reasons why jobs might get into Error state are:
- The hot folder location is on a computer that has been turned off.
- The internet connection stopped while the jobs were being sent.
PDF jobs with annotations that were previously edited in the PDF Editor are flattened when they are sent to a hot folder. Images, stamps, shapes, and signatures become part of the document content. Drawings, freeform highlights, text highlights, comments, and notes are removed.
