Creating PDF from outline view creates watermark


Applies to: MindManager X5 Pro/Pro 6/ Pro 7

Symptom
Printing a map to PDF from Outline View creates watermark in the PDF.

Cause
An optional installation with MindManager is PDF X-Change, a third-party component that is licensed for the express purpose of printing MindManager Maps to PDF format.

Upon installation, PDF X-Change becomes available as a print driver in all applications on your system. PDF X-Change is only licensed to produce MindManager Maps in PDF format, and using PDF X-Change from other applications will entail a "Click to buy NOW!" watermark on the top corners of the requested PDF pages.

“Outline View” in MindManager uses Microsoft Word as an engine to create the outline. When creating a PDF from “Outline View”, Microsoft Word is being used to route the document to PDF X-Change. Since PDF X-change is only licensed to be used when printing MindManager Maps, the watermark will appear.

Clicking the PDF X-Change watermark will take you to the Tracker Software website where you can learn how to license this driver for all your applications.
