# Run PDF Export with Minimal Privileges

OpenText recommends that you run PDF Export with only those privileges that are necessary for it to function correctly, which follows best practice for any application. In particular, PDF Export needs access only to the following directories:

- the PDF Export bin directory.

- any input and output locations.

- the configured temporary directory (see Protect the Temporary Directory).

When you run PDF Export out-of-process, the PDF Export process runs with the same privileges as the calling application. OpenText therefore recommends that your calling application drops privileges, especially root or Administrator privileges, before it calls PDF Export.
