pdf driver profile frustrations

Post by ADeeg »

Hi support,

I like your products, and even the new homepage design is state of the art.

But I think there is a demand to mock up the printer settings dialog to provide a better user interface to manage profiles
I've tried to create several profiles inside the pdf driver v5 and v6 and - for me as experienced developer - it took a while to understand, that the save function is not the button "übernehmen" in german. The profile save button at the top right is not intuitive.

Our support needs to explain this to the customers be phone again and again.

It would be easier to understand, if you change the yellow picture button "save" to a text button ("save profile") and the add profile button to a text button too, Then a short explanation with tooltips to show on mouse over, could be useful

Bug:
A watermark configuration in a save profile: if you change the check boxes (screenshot) after saving the profile, then the clicks does not reactivate the save button.

Regards Armin

cool :-)

and the other part of my post ?

The icons for save profile and create profile are not intuitive, better you change this to text buttons or buttons with picture and text.
