Managing renditions

The Objective PDF Renditions Server enables you to create PDF Renditions of Objective documents. When you submit an Objective document to the PDF Renditions Server, the native format of the document (for example, Microsoft Word or AutoCAD) is converted to PDF format. PDF Renditions allow users who do not have access to a document's native application, to view a high fidelity copy of the document.

Rendition creation generally occurs as a background process. The creation time is dependent on the processing allocated and the length of the job queue.

You cannot search for renditions because they are not stored in Objective ECM as separate objects. As such, you cannot attach catalogue data to a rendition. All renditions are read-only and cannot be modified.
