Note

  • In Power PDF Standard, access is provided to the cloud sites. In Power PDF Advanced, access to these cloud sites and to DMS sites are available only if they were included at installation time by running a Custom installation. SharePoint is always offered if enabled at install time; all other DM systems are offered only if they have a client component installed on your computer.

  • Dropbox is not supported directly in Power PDF. See About Cloud Connectors for details.
