Refugee to C1 12 trying to export from preview

Hi everybody.

Well we abandoned the sinking ship and are now fully relying on Capture One 12.

Previously it was possible in Media Pro to export a PDF / print a document from the previews / cache, without a permanent connection to the library and the original files. Now in C1 12, when we don't have access to the full library, we are unable to generate a printable PDF via the file>print tab, or create a web contact sheet. We generate the previews at >2056 px and those should be sufficient to create a pdf-overview for the client, right?

Have others bumped into similar issues and know a workaround for the described problem?
Or are we just to blind and there is a mistake on our end?

Cheers!

  In C1, you can create a process recipe that outputs to the format JPEG QuickProof. That creates output based on the preview, though obviously of more limited resolution than you could get with access to the raw file.

  Cheers Ian!
  That actually does help! Thanks a ton for your quick response!
  
  We've been playing a bit with the Process recipe tool and it actually does what we asked for. A feature we are still missing though, is a "export previews as single PDF" function. This has the advantage that the client has an overview of all files and the names of the files, and can simply let us know what files they like most and which are being rejected. And idea for a workaround? (ideally from within C1).
  
  Thanks again mate!
