# NSPDFPanel.Options

Constants used to configure the contents of a PDF panel.

```
struct Options
```

## Topics

### Constants

[`showsPaperSize`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPDFPanel/Options-swift.struct/showsPaperSize)

The PDF panel shows a menu of paper sizes.

[`showsOrientation`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPDFPanel/Options-swift.struct/showsOrientation)

The PDF panel shows the current orientation of the PDF contents, such as landscape or portrait.

[`requestsParentDirectory`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPDFPanel/Options-swift.struct/requestsParentDirectory)

The PDF panel doesn’t show a name field; instead, it allows the user to identify a directory in which to save multiple PDF files. If you set this flag, you’re responsible for appending a filename and the “pdf” extension to the resulting  URL value in the [`NSPDFInfo`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPDFInfo) object before proceeding with the creation of the PDF file (or calling the `takeSettingsFromPDFInfo` method of [`NSPrintInfo`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPrintInfo)).
