Creating a new PDF Services alias of Paperless should resolve the issue.

  1. Go to ~/Library/PDF Services/

  2. Trash the existing PDF Services aliases fro Paperless.

  3. Open a new finder window.

  4. Navigate to your applications folder.

  5. Make an alias of Paperless (CMD-L) (you can also make aliases to specific libraries if you wish).

  6. Place the alias of Paperless (or a library's Alias) into the ~/Library/PDF Services/ folder.

For new users, Paperless creates this PDF Services item automatically. If you manually delete the item Paperless doesn't recreate it. It will re-create this item if it does not already exist and your preferences have been deleted.
