Another way to get files into DEVONthink is using PDF services. Installing DEVONthink's service adds a Save PDF to DEVONthink option to the PDF button of the print dialog in any Mac application. This allows you to print a paginated PDF directly to your database. To install the PDF service, select DEVONthink > Install Add-ons and check PDF Services in the dialog window. Then click Install and the option should now be available. Printing to your database: To "print" (save) a document to DEVONthink as a PDF, open it in its creator application (this could even be DEVONthink itself). Then, do the following: Select File > Print. In the appearing print dialog window, click the PDF button at the lower left corner and select Save PDF to DEVONthink from the menu. A PDF will be printed and sent to DEVONthink. Depending on your choice for the Files > Import > Destination setting, files import into the Global Inbox or lets you choose the destination group.
