Dossier Studio - Export To PDF, SHP, KML, and/or a .job file and Email As PDF

The Export menu item allows the export of the maps that have been created and laid out in the Dossier Studio in a pdf packet format. Once the Dossier is generated as a PDF, it can be printed. An option to Email the PDF also exists.

If your Dossier Studio's Table of Contents contains an Aerial or Aerial w GPA form, the Export will also contain a To Batch Job File option. > Please see the Batch Export Job Files from the Dossier Studio support page for help on that function.

With the Dossier Studio open and at least one map or form added, go to Export from the menu bar.


The "As PDF, SHP, KML and/or Job" option creates a multi-page pdf file and additionally allows SHP, KML, and Satloc Job files to be included with the download.


An Export Options box will open and allow the selection of additional files to be included with the PDF download. If you just want a PDF packet of the maps/forms, click the Get Download button without checking any of the optional filetypes.


Once the PDF is created, the file will either be downloaded automatically to the folder designated by your browser(typically Downloads) or a Save As dialog will appear.
See:Browser Download Setting help page for assistance on changing this setting.


Selecting the SHP, KML, and/or a .job file will combine all the boundaries within your dossier packet into a single instance of whichever filetype(s) is selected. These file(s) will then be packaged with the PDF packet in a single downloaded zip file.


Change the Default Attachment Name to rename the boundary files within the created zip file then click the Get Download.


The file will be either saved automatically to the browser's designated location or a Save As dialog will appear depending on the browser settings.
See:Browser Download Setting help page for assistance on changing this setting.


"Email As PDF" will bring up the email interface to email the PDF directly from the Dossier Studio
