PdfCompressor Watch Folder & Multiple Users

July 28th, 2007 by Chris

Question: We purchased PdfCompressor application some time back. It was installed onto a server so multiple uses could use it for compression & OCR of our scanned documents. How does a workstation user run the application that is installed on the server?

Answer: PdfCompressor has a feature which is called a “watch folder” which runs as a service on a particular machine or server. The folders that PdfCompressor watches could be a network folder/s or a local folder/s. In either case, any of the users that need to compress files would only need access to these folders. Once files are dropped into these folders our compressor would automatically grab the files and compress them.

Please note that we have the “Watch Folder” documented in our Help Options, a full HTML help facility is provided to the user with the install of PdfCompressor. It can be accessed from the “CVision” folder in your Start menu as well as from the program itself. We also have a BLOG that we host and update a regular basis

Using Kofax with PdfCompressor

July 16th, 2007 by Chris

Question: Since we are not using the Kofax OCR module, but the CVISION PdfCompressor KCM Kofax module, the question is can this KCM Kofax module also be configured to run as a server-based Windows process, or are we limited to having it run as a client-based, manually run process.

Answer: The KCM modules have been created to run just like all other Kofax modules. That means that they can run on a server, unattended, and process batches automatically. However, the KCM cannot run as a windows service. This means that someone has to be logged into the server. A windows service allows executables to run without someone logged in. For most clients this is not a problem but it that is the limitations.
