Hi folks, the “Save PDF to Devonthink” option is missing from my print dialog. How do I put it back?!
Thanks,
R Haynes
See menu DEVONthink 3 > Install Add-Ons…

See Page 38 of outstanding DEVONthink Manual where it discusses “Save PDF to DEVONthink”.

Thanks - is it the PDF bookmarklet that I need on that page?
It’s the PDF Services in DEVONthink > Install Add-Ons.
This adds a Save PDF to DEVONthink 3 command to the PDF menu in a print dialog.
Hi - yes, I checked that box (actually it was checked so I unchecked and checked again), hit install, restarted Devonthink and the computer but no dice.
No dice… what?
Also, does DEVONthink have Full Disk Access in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy?
Sorry for the use of the colloquial “no dice”, I meant that the “Save PDF to devonthink” is still not appearing in the system print dialog.
I’m very familiar with the phrase. 
Please post a screen capture of where you’re looking in the print dialog.
Did you check that DEVONthink 3 has full disk access?
Yes - just double checked that I made that change (DT did not have full disk access when I checked originally, for some reason).
Just a thought…have you rebooted and restarted DEVONthink since making the change?

Yes.
Which version of DEVONthink & macOS and what kind of user account (admin?) do you use?
DT: 3.8.5
Mac OSX 12.4
user account with admin priv.
Well, the last idea coming to my mind is to check the permissions of the folder ~/Library/PDF Services - do you have read/write access? And I guess DEVONthink is installed in /Applications?
