procedures in Chapter 3, Upgrading AppXtender System.

Third-party Component Installations

The following third-party components can be automatically installed during the AppXtender
Desktop installation process:
• Required: Microsoft .NET Framework. If your machine does not have the current version of
Microsoft .NET Framework, a message appears during the installation process asking if you want
to install it. Select Yes to install it. Once it is installed it remains on the machine.
• Optional: QuickScan Pro. This is an optional component for the Complete, Scanning, and Custom
Installation Types. It is only installed if yes is selected and license purchase is confirmed. Once it
is installed it remains on the machine. For information on installing and using QuickScan Pro,
refer to QuickScan Pro online help and the following documentation: QuickScan Pro Release Note,
QuickScan Pro Quick Start Guide, QuickScan Pro Overview, and QuickScan Pro Exporter Software
Development Kit.
Note: You need to have one QuickScan Pro license per installation of AppXtender Desktop.

11
Installing ApplicationXtender Desktop

Setup
The AppXtender Desktop installation process follows standard Windows setup wizard rules with
prompts that guide you through the installation process.
As applicable, the Next button allows you to proceed to the next page, while the Back button allows
you to return to the previous page. You can cancel the installation by clicking Cancel.
A full AppXtender Desktop installation requires 1.5 GB of hard disk space (depending on your

Installing AppXtender Desktop in Citrix Install

Mode
A Citrix server allows users to log in from remote locations and run software that is installed on the
server. In order to allow users to run AppXtender Desktop remotely from a Citrix server, AppXtender
Desktop must be installed and configured in “install” mode.

To install and configure AppXtender Desktop in install mode for Citrix support:
1. On the Citrix server, log in as an administrator.
2. From the Windows Start menu, select Run. The Windows Run dialog box appears.
3. In the Open text box, enter the following command:
change user /install
This command initiates install mode.
4. While in install mode, install AppXtender Desktop following the procedures provided in Setup,
page 12.
5. If it is necessary to restart the computer after AppXtender Desktop installation, repeat Step
3 above to return to install mode.
6. While in install mode, configure AppXtender data sources and the workstation as you normally
would. If you have saved data source and configuration settings from another workstation, you
can load those settings on the workstation to save time.
7. Log out.

16
 Installing ApplicationXtender Desktop

Because AppXtender Desktop installation and configuration has been performed in install mode,
users who log in from remote locations can run AppXtender Desktop on the Citrix server and
automatically inherit the configuration settings.

Unattended Setup
With an AppXtender Desktop Unattended Setup, you can ensure that AppXtender Desktop is
installed consistently on multiple machines.
Unattended Setup is provided for administrators who:
• Are familiar with the AppXtender Desktop installation process
• Are installing AppXtender Desktop on machines that already have all of the required third-party
components
• Do not need to perform a custom installation
• Do not need to upgrade an installation

To perform an Unattended Setup:

Note: Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 users, you must run command prompt as
administrator, or disable the User Account Control feature.
1. Install all required third-party components.
2. Obtain the installation files for AppXtender Desktop.
Download the Desktop_7.0.xxx.zip file from the EMC Support Center at
http://support.emc.com to a temporary directory on your computer and extract the
installer zip file to the temporary directory. If you download multiple products, download
all of them to the same temporary directory.
3. Compose a command line to install AppXtender Desktop unattended according to your needs.
Unattended Setup is run using MSIExec (Microsoft Windows Installer) from the Command
Prompt. An option is available for each configurable installation parameter. The command line
format appears as follows:
MSIExec /i "ApplicationXtender Desktop.msi" /q INSTALLDIR="Path"
ADDLOCAL=Feature,Feature /L "log_path_&_filename"
Each command line parameter is described in the following table:

Note: Features are case sensitive. When entering them in a command line, they must be entered
exactly as they are shown in the table or the setup will fail. For example, enter DocumentManager
not Document Manager.
Some examples of Unattended Setup Command Lines that show possible combinations of
command line syntax that can be used to install AppXtender Desktop using Unattended Setup are:

Example One:
MSIExec /i "ApplicationXtender Desktop.msi" /q ADDLOCAL=DocumentManager,
DemoDatabase,AppGen,ImportWizards,TWAIN INSTALLDIR="D:\AppXtender Desktop"
IS_SQLSERVER_AUTHENTICATION=1 IS_SQLSERVER_DATABASE="AxDemoDB" IS_SQLSERVER_SERVER=
"(local)" IS_SQLSERVER_USERNAME="sa" IS_SQLSERVER_PASSWORD="emcsi@X123" /L "C:\AxSetup.log"
This command only installs the AppXtender Desktop application, Demo Database, Application
Generator, Import Wizards, and support for TWAIN scanners in the specified directory
D:\AppXtender Desktop. No user interface appears. Logs are saved to the C:\AxSetup.log file.

Example Two:
MSIExec /i "ApplicationXtender Desktop.msi" /q ADDLOCAL=ALL
IS_SQLSERVER_AUTHENTICATION=1 IS_SQLSERVER_DATABASE="AxDemoDB"
IS_SQLSERVER_SERVER="(local)" IS_SQLSERVER_USERNAME="sa" IS_SQLSERVER_PASSWORD=

20
 Installing ApplicationXtender Desktop

This command installs everything to the default directory C:\Program Files

\XtenderSolutions\Content Management. No user interface appears. Error messages are
appended to the log file located at C:\AxSetup.log.
4. Run the command prompt as Administrator and navigate to the directory where the AppXtender
Desktop setup files are located.

5. Enter the command line at the command prompt. Press <Enter> to run the command. Unattended
installation begins. (If the computer needs to restart, it does so automatically.)

Configuring the Data Source

After you have installed AppXtender Desktop, you must configure the data source. For more
information, refer to the ApplicationXtender Core Components Administrator’s Guide.
After you have configured one or more data sources, use the AppXtender Data Source Selector to
locate and select the data sources that have been created in AppXtender Admin. You specify the
default data source for AppXtender AppGen and the import wizard, and you can also select multiple
data sources for display in AppXtender Document Manager.
When you set an application as the active application within AppXtender Document Manager, the
data source containing that application also becomes active. Setting a data source as active within
AppXtender Document Manager is not the same as setting a data source as default in the AppXtender
Data Source Selector or Queue Manager.
When you save AppXtender Document Manager machine settings, each of these settings is also saved:
• Default data source
• Selected data sources
• Active data source

21
Installing ApplicationXtender Desktop

Selecting Data Sources

A data source is the means by which AppXtender accesses data from a database. Information that is
stored in the AppXtender database includes application definitions, security information, document
index information, and pointers to document locations.
Multiple data sources can be viewed simultaneously within AppXtender Document Manager. In
this way, you can access applications located on different data sources during a single AppXtender
Document Manager session, provided you have security rights to access those data sources.
For information on data source creation and configuration, consult your AppXtender system
administrator or refer to the "ApplicationXtender Data Sources" section of the ApplicationXtender
Core Components Administrator’s Guide.
Note: You can save data source settings (which data sources are default and which are selected) to a
file, along with other AppXtender Document Manager workstation settings. Also, if you have such

Introduction
As the AppXtender system administrator, the following aspects of machine configuration must be
considered:
• You (or the user) can adjust the layout of the AppXtender Document Manager window and the
behavior of the AppXtender Document Manager views. You can also customize toolbar display
and settings. For instructions, see Customizing the AppXtender Document Manager Window,
page 35.
• You control the level of access that the users on your AppXtender system have to functionality on
their AppXtender Document Manager machines. You can allow users to configure all aspects of
AppXtender Document Manager functionality on their individual machines, or you can restrict
configuration rights and only allow configuration of options relating to the display of information
in AppXtender Document Manager. For instructions, see Opening the Configuration Dialog Box,
page 52 and the topics for each tab.
• To simplify AppXtender system deployment, AppXtender Document Manager provides Save
Settings and Load Settings features that allow you to copy machine settings from one Document
Manager machine to another. You (or the user) customize all aspects of a Document Manager
machine configuration for a single computer, and then save the settings using the Save Settings
feature. To copy the saved configuration to other machines, you simply load the saved settings
file on each machine, and all of the saved configuration settings are applied. By going through
each of the configuration and customization options described in this chapter, you can set most of
the options that can be saved as machine settings. For detailed instructions and for a list of the
settings that are saved, see Saving and Loading Settings, page 99.

 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Field masking
Currently, ApplicationXtender administrators can use a validation mask to specify the exact
format (character pattern) required for each text index field associated with an application.
When the Validation Mask option is enabled for a text field, ApplicationXtender performs a
character-by-character validation of user input for the field during the document indexing process.
This action ensures that data is stored in the database in the desired format.
ApplicationXtender extends the concept of field masking to allow administrators to mask field display
values. This feature prevents users from viewing confidential data in index fields. The following
sections describe this feature.

Masking confidential data

Due to increasing concern over identity theft, credit card fraud, and other situations where
confidential information falls into the wrong hands, institutions that handle this type of data require
higher security that is more granular. In particular, these institutions require the ability to hide or
mask confidential data to prevent unauthorized users from viewing the data.
To address this need, ApplicationXtender allows administrators to create full or partial display masks
for text index fields using a special set of mask characters. These characters, which are identified in
the Field Display Mask Characters column in , are used to mask the metadata from view. The table
also identifies the existing input validation mask characters, which validate user input in text index
fields but do not hide the data. You can define a format for a text index field that uses any combination
of input validation and field display mask characters, depending on your business needs.

Input Validation Mask Field Display Mask Characters Allows or Hides These
Characters Characters
n d Numerical character (0–9)
z y Numerical character (0–9) or
space
a c Alphabetic character (A-Z)
x m Non-space character
? p Any character

To mask display values for an application’s text field, enable the Validation Mask option for the field
using the Fields page in ApplicationXtender Application Generator, as shown in Figure 2, page 34.
Then specify the characters that you want to hide using the appropriate field display mask characters.
Mask characters are specified in the Format box. Each character in the mask string represents
one character in the index field value. For example, to mask a text index value consisting of four
alphabetic characters, you would create a field display mask using the format cccc. The following
figure shows an example of a masked text field.

33
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Figure 2. Defining a Field Display Mask

In addition to masking data in text index fields, administrators can also mask portions of social
security numbers and telephone numbers using new predefined field formats for the SSN and
Telephone data types. Refer to Additional predefined field formats, page 35 for more information.
With the exception of the ApplicationXtender Document Index view, masked field values are not
visible in the Document Manager or Web Access user interface (Result Set, Export, Email, and
cross-application query dialogs) regardless of user permissions. An asterisk (*) appears in place of
each masked character in the index field, as shown in Figure 3, page 34. However, ApplicationXtender
users with Modify Index privilege can view and modify index values for masked fields in the
Document Index view. Refer to Implementing Security in the ApplicationXtender Core Components
Administrator’s Guide for more information on user and group privileges.
Figure 3, page 34 illustrates a masked index field in ApplicationXtender Document Manager. In the
sample dialog, the currently logged in user does not have the Modify Index privilege. As a result,
the masked portion of the index field value is hidden in the Document Index view in addition to the
Result Set view.

Figure 3. Masked Index Field

 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Additional predefined field formats

ApplicationXtender provides additional predefined field formats for the SSN and Telephone data
types to support field display masking.

Data Type Format Sample Masked Data

Social Security Number ddd-dd-nnnn ***-**-1234
dddddnnnn *****1234
Telephone Number nnn-ddd-dddd 123-***-****
(nnn)ddd-dddd (123)***-****
(nnn) ddd-dddd (123) ***-****
The ApplicationXtender Core Components Administrator’s Guide provides more information on defining
index fields.

Customizing the AppXtender Document

Manager Window
You can set up the AppXtender Document Manager Document Manager window for your users and
copy it from one AppXtender Document Manager machine to other AppXtender Document Manager
machines. By customizing window settings, you can set up the AppXtender environment in the
way that you think would be most productive for the users on your AppXtender system. You can
customize both toolbar settings and view settings. Any adjustments that you make to the contents,
locations, and display settings of the toolbars, and the location and display settings of the Application
view, Query view, of Thumbnail view can be copied to another AppXtender Document Manager

Customizing AppXtender Document Manager

Views
The Applications, Query, and Thumbnail views can be modified to meet your preferences. By
changing the way AppXtender Document Manager views display, you can customize the AppXtender
Document Manager desktop.
The Applications, Query, and Thumbnail views can each be configured to appear as a docked
view, as a dialog box, or as a subwindow. The Applications view and the Query view can also be
configured to "hide on use."

Docking a View
An AppXtender Document Manager docked view has a grab bar. A grab bar is similar to a title bar
except that it does not contain a title.

You can drag the view to the left, right, top, or bottom of the AppXtender Document Manager
window by dragging this bar. A docked view automatically aligns with the AppXtender Document
Manager window borders and cannot be moved beyond the borders. By default, the Applications,
Query, and Thumbnail views appear as docked views.
Note: The following procedure applies to only the Applications, Query, and Thumbnail views. It
does not apply to the Document Display view or the Index view.

To dock a view that is now a dialog box:

1. Right-click inside the dialog box. From the shortcut menu that appears, select Allow Docking.
Allow Docking can be toggled on or off.
2. Click the grab bar, and drag the view to the desired position on the AppXtender Document
Manager desktop. For the view to dock, you must drag it to the left, right, top or bottom edge
of the AppXtender Document Manager desktop. When you release the mouse button, the view
moves to that location.

Hiding a View on Use

By default, the views remain in the AppXtender Document Manager window until you close, or
hide, them. That is, when you display the Query View, the Applications View remains. Also, when
you display a document, the Query View remains. You can configure the Applications view to
hide when you display the Query View, and you can configure the Query View to hide when you
display a document.

47
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

This is described as "hiding on use" because you use the Applications view to display the Query View
and you use the Query View to display a document. When a view is configured to hide on use,
this configuration is often described as "hide on use mode." In this mode, AppXtender Document
Manager automatically hides the view after items have been selected.
You can always display the hidden view using the Applications View button or the Query View
button on the Main toolbar. The hide on use mode can be used on a view whether it displays as a
docked view, as a dialog box, or as a subwindow.
Note: The following procedures apply to only the Applications view and the Query view. They do
not apply to the Document Display, Index, or Thumbnail view.
To configure a docked view to hide on use:
• Right-click the view’s grab bar.
• From the shortcut menu that appears, select Hide on Use.
To configure a dialog box or subwindow to hide on use:
• Right-click inside the dialog box or subwindow.
• From the shortcut menu that appears, select Hide on Use.

Activating AppXtender Document Manager Full Screen

• To display all index fields and a small folder icon next to each record, select Details.

• To display only the first index field of each record and a large folder icon above each record,
select Folders.

Hiding or Showing Result Set Columns

The first time you log into an AppXtender application, the Result Set tab displays a column for each
of the index fields in the application, plus a column for the number of pages in each document. You
can hide any of these columns. There is also a column for the document ID, which is hidden by
default. You can configure this column to appear in the Result Set.

To hide or show a column:

1. Right-click a column heading in the Result Set. From the shortcut menu that appears, select
Settings. The List Column Editor dialog box appears.

show has a check mark, click OK.

Sorting the Result Set

Ascending or descending sorts can be performed on any index column listed in the Result Set tab.
To sort a field in ascending order, click the column heading of the desired field. To sort a field in
descending order, click the column heading of the field again.
In addition, your workstation may be configured to sort the result set automatically based on the last
column selected or based on the document ID. The Display tab of the Configuration dialog box allows
this configuration. For information, refer to Use KeyView to Display Foreign Files, page 55.

Reordering the Result Set Columns

The first time you log into an AppXtender application, the Result Set tab displays columns in a
default order. You can change the order of these columns. To move a column, drag the column to
the position you want to use.

Resizing the Result Set Columns

The first time you log into an AppXtender application, the Result Set tab displays default column
widths for each index field. These column widths are resizable. Because the data is truncated in
narrow columns, resizing is a useful display tool.

Opening the Configuration Dialog Box

As the AppXtender system administrator, you control the level of access that users on your
AppXtender system have to functionality on their AppXtender Document Manager machines. You
can allow users to configure all aspects of AppXtender Document Manager functionality on their
individual machines, or you can restrict configuration rights and only allow configuration of options
relating to the display of information in AppXtender Document Manager.
If the Configure WS privilege is enabled in a user’s security profile, the user has access to all
AppXtender Document Manager configuration options. If it is disabled, you can set configuration
options and the user cannot access the configuration tabs to change those options.
The ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide includes information on the configuration
options that are available to users regardless of their security settings. This chapter contains
information relating to the more advanced configuration options.
• Each AppXtender Document Manager machine has a Configuration dialog box, accessible through
AppXtender Document Manager, which can be used to customize the behavior of AppXtender
Document Manager on the machine.
Many configuration options are available to accommodate individual operational needs. Some
configuration options are cosmetic and do not alter the way the system performs, such as options
controlling the look and feel of the main screen. Others are integral to the functionality of AppXtender
Document Manager, such as a default digital certificate; the file types and formats that AppXtender
Document Manager use; and interface options for e-mail, fax server, and optical character recognition
(OCR) packages.
This topic explains the configuration options available in AppXtender Document Manager, including:
export formats, font types for text, COLD/ERM display settings, display zoom default, OCR settings,
full-text settings, and various other AppXtender system settings.
System defaults are in place for most features, such as zoom and tile. These defaults can be changed
in the Configuration dialog box. Changes made to the options in the Configuration dialog box are
saved when you save machine settings. For a detailed description of what options are saved, see
Saving and Loading Settings, page 99.

To open the Configuration dialog box:

1. From the File menu, select Configuration. The Configuration dialog box appears.
2. Set the desired options according to the instructions in the following topics:
• View Tab, page 53
• Display Tab, page 56

3. Click OK. The Configuration dialog box closes and any changes you have made are saved.

View Tab
The View tab of the Configuration dialog box allows you to configure several aspects of viewing
documents and batches.

Image Size Options

Image Size options control the default display size of images displayed in AppXtender Document
Manager. You can use these options with all supported image types. (In AppXtender Document

53
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Manager, these options also apply to text when the Allow zoom option is enabled on the COLD
tab of the Configuration dialog box.)

To change the default image size setting:

1. In the Configuration dialog box, select the View tab.
2. Under Image Size, select one of the five zoom settings.
These settings are explained in the following table:

Option Description
Fit to window If this option is chosen as the default, AppXtender
Document Manager displays images to fit the display
window either top to bottom or left to right, while
maintaining the original aspect ratio of the image and
displaying the entire image.
Fit to window height If this option is chosen as the default, AppXtender
Document Manager displays images to fit the window
from top to bottom. You might need to scroll left or
right to see the sides of the image.
Fit to window width If this option is chosen as the default, AppXtender
Document Manager displays images to fit the window
from left to right. You might need to scroll up or down
to see the top or bottom of the image.
Actual size If this option is chosen as the default, AppXtender
Document Manager displays images as actual size (one
pixel stored is equal to one pixel on the monitor).
Use zoom setting If this option is chosen as the default, AppXtender
Document Manager displays images using the default
zoom percent. The Use Zoom Setting drop-down list
allows you to set the default ratio.

3. If you have enabled the Use zoom setting radio button, select the desired ratio. You can click
the User zoom setting drop-down list and select the desired ratio (standard options range from
25% to 400%) or type the preferred percentage in the text box.
4. Click OK to save the settings.

Zoom Settings are Pixels

By default, AppXtender Document Manager takes into consideration both the image resolution and
monitor resolution when rendering images for display. By enabling the Zoom settings are pixels
option, AppXtender Document Manager displays images in raw pixel size, disregarding image
and monitor resolution.

54
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Scale-to-Gray
When the Scale-to-gray option is enabled, AppXtender Document Manager displays bi-tonal (black
and white) images as grayscale, which is frequently a more legible format. Various shades are used to
convert black and white images for the highest readability. This option applies to bi-tonal images only.

Display Text View of Page

AppXtender Document Manager allows users to process images using OCR, creating an alternate
"text view" of the image. Users can switch between the original image and the text view of the image
at will. The Display text view of page option sets the default document display to text format or image
format. When the check box is enabled on the View tab of the Configuration dialog box, AppXtender
Document Manager displays documents as text when applicable. If no OCR view is available, the
page is automatically processed using OCR to create an OCR view when it is viewed. When the check
box is disabled, AppXtender Document Manager always displays documents in image format.

Restore Last Layout at Startup

If this option is enabled, the AppXtender Document Manager window layout is automatically saved
when you exit AppXtender Document Manager. This includes the following settings:
• AppXtender Document Manager window size and location
• Toolbar locations and toolbar button size
• View type (docked view, dialog box, or subwindow) for the Applications, Query, and Thumbnail
views
• Location and size of the Applications, Query, and Thumbnail views
If this option is disabled, the window layout is not saved on exit. When you open AppXtender
Document Manager, the window layout reverts to the previously saved settings.

Use KeyView to Display Foreign Files

When this option is enabled, AppXtender Document Manager uses the Autonomy KeyView
Viewer technology to display the contents of various foreign files. The appearance of a foreign
file in KeyView is similar to its appearance in its native viewer, but not exactly the same. For a
list of KeyView Viewer-supported file types, refer to the "Creating Documents" chapter of the
ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide. When this option is disabled, AppXtender
Document Manager displays a foreign file page as an icon.

55
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Use Acrobat Reader to Display PDF Files

When this option is enabled, AppXtender Document Manager uses the Acrobat Reader technology to
display the contents of PDF files. When this option is disabled, AppXtender Document Manager uses
PDF Library to display each PDF page.
Note: If you choose to display a PDF document in Acrobat Reader, you cannot annotate the pages and
full-text search hits on the PDF pages will not be highlighted. However, the PDF Library performs
document printing of a PDF page regardless of the view setting.

Allow Map of Unknown Data Sources to Existing Data

Sources
When this option is enabled, AppXtender Document Manager allows you to specify a data source
for a document for which the data source is unknown. The original data source may be unknown if
you are opening a document that has been somehow saved to your computer or if a reference to an
AppXtender document has been e-mailed to you. If the name of the data source listed in the reference
is named different from the data sources that are configured on your computer and you attempt to
open the file, the Pick a Data Source dialog box will appear, allowing you to specify the correct data
source to use. The ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide provides more information
about selecting a data source from the Pick a Data Source dialog box.

Display Tab
The Display tab of the Configuration dialog box contains options for various AppXtender Document
Manager display features.

56
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Screen DPI
The Screen DPI settings refer to the dots per inch of the system monitor. AppXtender Document
Manager takes this information from the video interface card installed with the system. You can
overwrite the defaults by entering new Horizontal or Vertical settings. If you want to change the
Horizontal or Vertical settings back to the defaults from the video interface card, click Reset.

PgUp/PgDn in Dual-Page View

This option dictates how the [PAGE UP] and [PAGE DOWN] keys operate in AppXtender Document
Manager when a document or batch is in dual-page display mode. This mode is also known as Split
View. The Split View feature splits the Document Display view or the Batch Display view so that
multiple pages of the same document or batch are displayed.
In Split View, the actions performed by your [PAGE UP] and [PAGE DOWN] keys depend on the
PgUp/PgDn in Dual-Page View setting in the Display tab:
• When you select Next/previous 2 pages, the keys page through two pages at a time. For example,
if you display a document or batch with four pages in Split View, pages 1 and 2 appear first,
then pages 3 and 4.
• When you select Next/previous page, the keys page through one page at a time. For example,
if you display a document or batch with four pages in Split View, pages 1 and 2 appear first,
then pages 2 and 3.

Query Results
The Query Results options allow you to configure the maximum number of documents that are
included in a result and how the result set is sorted.

Maximum Query Results

Using the Maximum Query Results option, you can set the maximum number of documents that is
included in a result set. The default is 2048 documents. The higher this value is set, the larger the
result set can be. If a query returns more documents than the maximum number, the result set is
truncated.

Sort Result Set Automatically

This option sets the default to automatically sort index records displayed in the query result set based
on the column field selected. When this option is enabled on the Display tab of the Configuration
dialog box, the new query displayed in the result set is sorted by the last column field selected. When
this option is disabled, AppXtender Document Manager displays the index records in the query

57
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

result set based on one of the two Sort Order of Document ID options specified in the Sort Order
of Document ID topic.
Note: Automatic sort overrides sort order of document ID.

Maximum Index Retrieved

If the application in which you are searching has the Multiple indexes referencing single document
setting enabled, the result set may contain more than one record for each document. For example, if
the Maximum Query Results value on the Display tab in the Configuration dialog box is set to 2048
documents, your result set may contain more than 2048 index records. To improve performance,
use the Maximum Index Retrieved setting to limit the number of index records that are listed in the
result set.
The default setting is 1000 index records. The higher the value, the larger the result set can be. If a
query returns more index records than the maximum number, the result set is truncated.

Sort Order of Document ID

This feature lets you control the display of items in the query result set. When Ascending order
is enabled, AppXtender Document Manager displays index records listed in the query result set
by ascending chronological order. Enabling the Descending order sorts the documents in reverse
chronological order.

Ascending order

This option sets the sort order of the query result set in ascending chronological order, based on
the document ID number. If this option is chosen as the default, AppXtender Document Manager
displays index records sequentially, from low to high, in the query view.

Descending order

This option sets the sort order of the query result set to descending chronological order, based on
the document ID number. If this option is chosen as the default, AppXtender Document Manager
displays index records sequentially, from high to low, in the query view.

Fonts Tab
Using the Fonts tab of the Configuration dialog box, you can choose the fonts for displaying and
printing text documents.

58
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Screen Fonts
The font used for text display depends on whether the page has a text overlay, an image overlay, or no
overlay at all. It also depends on whether the user is allowed to zoom in on the page.
Note: Zoom is configured using the Allow zoom setting on the COLD tab. Allow Zoom, page 64
provides more information on configuring Allow zoom.
Using the Screen Fonts setting, you can configure the fonts used for text display.

To set the screen fonts:

1. Select the font to configure from the Screen Fonts list. You have the following choices:
• Page (fixed size)
• Page (variable size)
• Image Form Overlay
The font that you select depends on whether the text page has a text or image overlay and whether
zoom is enabled. The following table describes which font is used for text display in each scenario:

Page Type When Zoom is Enabled When Zoom is Disabled

Text with no overlay Page (variable size) Page (fixed size)
Text with a text overlay Page (variable size) Page (fixed size)
Text with an image Image Form Overlay Image Form Overlay

Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Note: AppXtender supports only fixed pitch fonts. The fonts that are displayed are the only
fixed pitch fonts currently on your computer.
3. Choose the font, style, and size you want to use for text display.
Note: If you are configuring the Image Form Overlay font, you do not need to select a font
size. Text on pages with an image overlay automatically appears at a calculated size that is
not configurable.
4. Click OK to save the settings.

Printer Fonts
The font used for printing text documents depends on whether the page has a text overlay, an image
overlay, or no overlay at all. It also depends on whether the user is allowed to zoom in on the page.
Note: Zoom is configured using the Allow zoom setting on the COLD tab. Allow Zoom, page
64provides more information on configuring Allow zoom.
Using the Printer Fonts setting, you can configure the fonts used for printing text.
You can configure the print fonts to be the same as the display fonts. Screen Fonts, page 59 provides
more information on configuring screen fonts.
However, you may need to configure the print fonts differently from the display fonts if the fonts
installed on the machine are different from those installed on the printer.

To set the print fonts:

1. Select the font to configure from the Printer Fonts list. You have the following choices:
• Page (fixed size)
• Page (variable size)
• Image Form Overlay
The font that you select depends on whether the text page has a text or image overlay and if zoom
is enabled. The following table describes which font is used for printing text in each scenario:

When Zoom is
Page Type When Zoom is Enabled Disabled
Text with no overlay Page (variable size) Page (fixed size)
Text with a text overlay Page (variable size) Page (fixed size)
Text with an image overlay Image Form Overlay Image Form Overlay

2. Click Change. The Font dialog box appears.

Note: AppXtender supports only fixed pitch fonts. The fonts that appear in the list are the only
fixed pitch fonts currently on your printer.
3. Choose the font, style, and size you want to use for text display.

 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Note: If you are configuring the Image Form Overlay font, you do not need to select a font
size. Text on pages with an image overlay automatically prints at a calculated size that is not
configurable.
4. Click OK to save the settings.

Simulate Box Drawing Characters

AppXtender uses "box drawing characters" to support the use of fonts that require box drawing
characters to correctly represent AppXtender text documents. Because of this, several characters in
the AppXtender font set are replaced with box drawing characters. For documents that are written
in foreign languages, this substitution may interfere with the font set requirements for the foreign
language. Characters display as boxes rather than as the characters that they should be.
For example, when viewing documents written in the Danish language, the box drawing character
substitution interferes with the font set requirements for Danish.
You need to disable the Simulate Box Drawing Characters options to view documents and text form
overlays written in any foreign language that uses characters that are assigned using the extended
ASCII values from 176 to 223.

To allow viewing of documents written in foreign languages using the extended ASCII
values from 176 to 223:
1. Disable the Enable Support for Form Text option to allow display of form overlays written in
foreign languages using the extended ASCII values from 176 to 223.
2. Disable the Enable Support for Data Text option to allow display of text documents written in
foreign languages using the extended ASCII values from 176 to 223.

Scan Tab
The Scan tab of the Configuration dialog box allows you to customize your batch scanning process.

61
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Enabling Image Processing Options

Image processing is a licensed feature that allows you to enhance images as they are scanned.

To configure AppXtender Document Manager for image processing:

1. On the Scan tab of the Configuration dialog box, enable Allow Image Processing.
2. Click OK.
Note: To access image enhancment options, you must log out of ApplicationXtender and then log
back in to ApplicationXtender after you enable Allow Image Processing for the first time.

Removing Blank Pages

You can configure AppXtender Document Manager to automatically remove blank pages from the
batch while you are scanning.

To configure the automatic removal of blank pages:

1. On the Scan tab of the Configuration dialog box, select the Remove blank pages check box to
enable the option. The Threshold slider becomes available.

62
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

2. Use the Threshold slider to adjust the setting for what the scanner recognizes as a blank page.
Keep in mind the following points:
• If you want to allow a noisier image to be recognized as a blank page (and therefore removed),
adjust the slider towards Noisier.
• If you want to allow a cleaner image to be recognized as a blank page (and therefore removed),
adjust the slider towards Cleaner.
3. Click OK to save the settings.

Caution: As you begin to use this feature, examine the pages that are scanned and take note
of which pages are automatically removed from the document or batch as you scan them.
If you find that pages are being removed that should not be removed, adjust the slider
towards Cleaner. You must make sure that the Threshold slider setting is appropriate for
the pages that you are scanning.

Synchronized Scan
With some types of scanning, the images are scanned faster than AppXtender Document Manager
can display them. The Synchronized scan option slows down your scanner so that AppXtender
Document Manager can display each scanned image. You have the following choices:
• If you want to review each page as it is scanned, enable the Synchronized scan option.
• If you want to allow your scanner to scan images at its highest speed, disable the Synchronized
scan option.

Scanner Manual Feed Time-out

This option sets the scanner time-out for scanning that is performed while in the manual feed mode.
The default is 20 seconds. The time-out option specifies how much time you will need to put more
pages in the scanner without having to manually continue the scan process. This option can be set
higher or lower to meet your needs.

COLD Tab
The COLD tab of the AppXtender Document Manager Configuration dialog box enables you to
configure the display of the following file types:
• ApplicationXtender Reports Management (AppXtender Reports Mgmt) documents
• Text, as defined on the File Types tab of the Configuration dialog box. For instructions, see File

Default Color Bar Settings

This feature lets you view text documents with a "color" bar background. When a document is
displayed with the color bar enabled, the background is composed of alternating bars of a selected
color and white. You can change the color and the width of the bands.

Show

Use this option to turn the color view on or off.

A check mark indicates that color view is on. No check mark indicates that color view is off.

This option sets the color to be used in color view.

To set the line color, in the Color drop-down list, click the color of your choice. (If the color that you
want to use is not listed, select Custom. The standard Windows Color dialog box appears, allowing
you to create a color for the color bar.)

Print Tab
The Print tab of the AppXtender Document Manager Configuration dialog box allows you to
configure how documents or pages are printed from AppXtender Document Manager.

Print Original Size

When an AppXtender page is printed, the printer automatically fits the contents of the page to a
standard printable area. If some characters in the page are outside the printable area of the page,
the printer slightly reduces the overall size of the page so that all characters can fit. However,
there are occasions when a perfect one-to-one (original to printed) match is required. AppXtender
Document Manager meets this requirement through the Print original size feature. This function
allows AppXtender Document Manager to override the printer’s fixed printable area. All characters
in a page are scaled to print exact original size.

66
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

When the Print Original Size option is enabled, AppXtender Document Manager overrides the
printer’s printable area and prints the selected page in exact original size. When disabled, the printer
shrinks or enlarges the selected page to fit the printable area.
This option applies to the following page types:
• Images
• Text, as defined on the File Types tab of the Configuration dialog box. For instructions, see File
Types Tab, page 79.

Fit to Page
Enabling this option allows AppXtender Document Manager to fit an image to the entire printable
area of a single page. The print endorsement settings determine whether the Fit to page option is
available. For more information, refer to Endorse Printed Pages, page 69.

Dithering
Dithering is a technique used in computer graphics to create the illusion of varying shades of gray on
a monochrome display or printer. Dithering relies on treating areas of an image as groups of dots that
are colored in different patterns. Dithering takes advantage of the eye’s tendency to blur spots of
different colors by averaging their effects and merging them into a single perceived shade or color.
Depending on the ratio of black dots to white dots within a given area, the overall effect is of a
particular shade of gray. Dithering is used to add realism to computer graphics and to soften jagged
edges in curves and diagonal lines at low resolutions.
If you are printing a color image to a monochrome (black and white) printer, you can improve the
quality of the printout by enabling the Dithering option. When this option is enabled and you send a
color image to a monochrome printer, AppXtender Document Manager dithers the image. For
example, if you print a color, 400 K, 200 DPI image to a monochrome printer, the result is a black
and white, 3600 K, 600 DPI image of the same size. Each pixel in the color image becomes nine
pixels in the black and white image.
Note: When the Dithering option is enabled and you send an image to a color printer, AppXtender
does not dither the image.

Print Toolbar Button

The Print Toolbar Button options allow you to configure the Print button on the Main toolbar. You

• If you want the Print button to display a Print dialog box for the currently displayed page, so that
the user can specify the scope of each print job individually, select Prompt.

Acceleration
The Acceleration options expedite the printing of documents or batches. Document Manager
supports XipPrint accelerator cards, Talaris printers, and Quick PCL printing.
Note: Pages with annotations, Cold and AppXtender Reports Mgmt pages with a form overlay, and
pages with print endorsements (from AppXtender Document Manager) are not printed in accelerated
mode. Whenever a page of one of these types is printed, AppXtender Document Manager ignores
the acceleration setting while that page prints.

XipPrint

If you have a XipPrint II card, you can use the XipPrint printer acceleration feature. The XipPrint II is
a card that can be installed in the SIMM socket of a printer. It takes over file decompression, allowing
AppXtender Document Manager to process print jobs more quickly.

Talaris

If you have a Talaris 1794FT or 3290FT printer, you can use the Talaris printer acceleration feature. The
Talaris 1794FT and 3290FT printers take over file decompression, allowing AppXtender Document
Manager to process print jobs more quickly.

Quick PCL

If you have a PCL5 compatible printer, such as HP III, HP IV or Compaq, you can use the Quick PCL
printer acceleration feature. This feature significantly improves printing performance for black
and white images to any PCL5 compatible printers. Quick Print bypasses the Windows GDI layer
so that AppXtender Document Manager communicates directly with the Windows printer driver.
This substantially reduces cycle time.
Note: Quick Print is valid for bi-tonal images only. Grayscale and color images are processed
at the standard rate.

 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Endorse Printed Pages

You can use this option to print pages with an identifying text message in one corner of each page.
Endorsements print on all pages as long as the option is enabled.
Note: Endorsements are valid for all file types except HTML.

To configure print endorsement:

1. Click the Endorse Printed Pages check box. (To disable the endorsement, clear the check box.)
2. From the Position drop-down list, select an option. Available options include Lower right, Lower
left, Upper right, and Upper left.
3. Type the endorsement message in the Text text box. Endorsement text strings can be up to 10
lines, and each line can have up to 80 characters, including spaces.
The Endorsement feature supports five pre-defined macros. To apply a macro, type it in the Text
text box. The following table describes each macro.

Macro Output
%DS Displays the short form of the date, such as 3/2/2008, on which
the page is printed.
%DL Displays the long form of the date, such as Friday, March 02, 2008,
on which the page is printed.
%T Displays the time at which the page is printed.
%U Displays the user who printed the page.
%P Displays the current page number.

69
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

4. Enable or disable the Overlap on image option. (This option is not available when using XipPrint
or Talaris acceleration.)
• If this option is enabled, the endorsement overlaps any images. This option allows the image to
be printed on a larger area of the page. You must select either Print original size or Fit to page.
• If this option is disabled, the images and the endorsement take up separate areas of the
printed page. Also, if this option is disabled, the Print original size and Fit to page options
become unavailable.
Consider disabling this option if the endorsement overlaps with an important part of the image,
or if the endorsement is difficult to read with the image printed behind it.
AppXtender prints the endorsement on every page in the location selected from the Position
drop-down list. The location of the macro output in the endorsement depends on the location of
the macro in the text string.

E-Mail Tab
The E-Mail tab of the AppXtender Document Manager Configuration dialog box provides options for
e-mailing AppXtender documents. AppXtender interfaces with Microsoft Outlook® or cc:Mail™ so
that you can attach AppXtender documents or pages to electronic mail messages.
The attachment is displayed as an icon in the body of the e-mail message, and the recipient
double-clicks the icon to view documents or pages. AppXtender Document Manager has both a Mail
Document Reference feature and a Mail Document Page feature. Use this page to configure the Mail
Document Pages feature in the Document menu and the Mail feature in the Page menu.

Through e-mail configuration, any user can receive and view an e-mail message with an AppXtender
attachment, even if AppXtender Document Manager is not installed on the user’s machine. This is
accomplished by converting the AppXtender document into a format that can be opened by an
application that exists on the user’s machine. If the recipient has only the Paint program, for example,

70
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

AppXtender Document Manager can convert the attachment to a bitmap format. The recipient can
then view the attachment via Paint, because it reads bitmap files.
For instructions on sending documents by e-mail, refer to the "Managing Documents" chapter of the
ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide.

E-Mail Formats
On the E-Mail tab of the Configuration dialog box, all available formats for each image type (that is,
Black & white images, 4/8-bit color images, and True color images), are listed. The following is an
explanation of the E-Mail tab options that are available for your use.

E-mailing Images and Text in PDF Format

Enable the Use PDF format if possible option to e-mail document images and document text in
PDF format.

E-mailing Images and Text in XPS Format

Enable the Use XPS format if possible option to e-mail document images and document text in
XPS format.

Black & White Images for E-mail

This option determines the file format that AppXtender Document Manager will use for images.
Select a file format from the Black & white images drop-down list. Your choices are Windows BMP,
TIFF, and TIFF Compressed.

4/8-bit Color Images for E-mail

This option determines the file format that AppXtender Document Manager will use for 4/8-bit color
images. Select an appropriate file format from the 4/8-bit color images drop-down list. Your choices
are Windows BMP, Windows BMP Compressed, GIF, TIFF, and TIFF Compressed.

True Color Images for E-mail

This option determines the file format that AppXtender Document Manager will use when e-mailing
true color images. Select an appropriate file format from the True color images drop-down list. Your
choices are Windows BMP, GIF, JPEG, TIFF, and TIFF Compressed.

71
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Note: You can compress true color images using Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) image
compression. If you select JPEG, the JPEG quality factor (1-100) is enabled. JPEG Quality Factor
(1-100), page 72 provides more information on compressing JPEG images.
Note: AppXtender does not support progressive JPEGs. Importing a progressive JPEG into
AppXtender will result in the file being imported as a foreign file.

JPEG Quality Factor (1-100)

JPEG provides compression of true color images, such as photographs, artwork, and similar still
images. There is always some loss of information when you use JPEG compression to compress an
image. For example, when compressing a scanned photograph, the output image is not exactly
identical to the input image.
JPEG compression allows you to trade off between file size and output image quality. In most
cases, you want to obtain a minimum file size by choosing the maximum amount of compression
without affecting the output image quality. However, if image quality is not important, you can
use a higher compression level to make an extremely small file. Conversely, if the image quality is
important, you can use a lesser compression level to increase the quality until there is no visible
change to the output image.
The JPEG quality factor (1-100) slider allows you to choose the compression setting for true color
images. AppXtender uses the JPEG quality factor scale, which ranges from 1 to 100, where 1 indicates
the smallest file size with the lowest quality and 100 indicates the largest file size with the best quality.

To set the level of JPEG compression for e-mailed images:

1. On the E-Mail tab of the Configuration dialog box, select JPEG from the True color images
drop-down list. The JPEG Quality Factor (1-100) slide ruler becomes available.
2. Use the slide ruler on the scale to adjust (reduce or increase) the level of compression and the
quality factor that AppXtender applies to True color images when they are sent by e-mail.

72
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

3. Click OK to save the settings.

Text for E-mail

This option determines the file format that AppXtender Document Manager will use when e-mailing
text pages. By selecting As text, AppXtender Document Manager will e-mail pages as text and
exclude all annotations except redactions. Redactions cause the area where the redaction is located to
be blank. By selecting As image, AppXtender Document Manager will e-mail text pages as TIFFs
regardless of the image e-mail settings and include all annotations.

Use Multi-Page Files for E-mail

You can combine sequential pages that are similar or of the same file type and send them by e-mail as
a combined file attachment or as a sequence of combined file attachments with the Use multi-page
files option. For example, a document composed of a GIF, a TIFF, two PDFs, and three JPEGs (in that
order) would be combined into three files: a TIFF, a PDF, and another TIFF. The first TIFF would
contain the GIF and TIFF, the PDF would contain the two PDFs, and the second TIFF would contain
the three JPEGs.
Note: AppXtender can combine up to 1024 TIFF pages into a single attachment. For example, if you
send a document that contains 1025 consecutive TIFF pages, one attachment contains the first 1024
consecutive TIFF pages and another attachment contains the remaining TIFF page.
The following table details which file types can be combined and how they are combined:

File types Output when combined

All supported image files, including: 1 TIFF file for each sequence of image
• TIFF pages in the document
Note: The number of pages that can be
• GIF
combined into 1 TIFF file is limited to
• Bitmap 1024. If there are more than 1024 pages
in the document, the combined files are
• PCX broken up so that each file has no more
than 1024 pages in it.
• DCX

• JPEG

• TGA
Adobe Portable Document Format 1 PDF file for each sequence of PDF
(PDF) files pages in the document

73
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

File types Output when combined

Text files, including: 1 TXT file for each sequence of text pages
• TXT files in the document (if the TXT file type
was configured on the Configuration
• AppXtender Reports Mgmt File Types tab in AppXtender Document
reports Manager when the document was
created); otherwise 1 TXT file for each
TXT page in the document
Rich Text Format (RTF) files 1 RTF file for each RTF page in the
document
HTML files 1 HTML file for each HTML page in the
document
AppXtender-supported foreign file 1 file for each file in the document
types, including:
• Word processing files

• Spreadsheets

• Presentations

When the Use multi-page files option is disabled, pages of the same type are not combined. If you
send a document by e-mail when this option is disabled, each page of the document is a separate
attachment to the e-mail message.

E-mail in Archived Format

The Email in Archived format option allows you to send the archived format of each page by e-mail.
That is, instead of specifying that images be sent as Windows BMP, Windows BMP Compressed, GIF,
JPEG, TIFF, or TIFF Compressed, you can specify that pages be sent in the same format in which they
were stored in the AppXtender system. A page can be sent in its archived format only when both
of the following conditions are true:
• The current user has sufficient privileges to hide all of the redactions on the page (if there are any).
• The page to be sent is not a certain kind of subpage. (If a subpage number appears after the BIN
file name in the Information dialog box for the page to be sent, it can not be sent in its archived
format. For instructions on displaying the Information dialog box, see the "Viewing Documents"
chapter of the ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide.)
If these conditions are true, the archived format of the page is always sent. If these conditions are not
true, the page is sent as specified with other format options on the E-mail tab.
For example, if you have the image storage format for black and white images set to TIFF on the Data
tab of the Configuration dialog box, and you import a black and white image into AppXtender, it is
stored in TIFF format. If you enable the Use archived format option on the E-mail tab, and you send
the same image from AppXtender (and the conditions above are met), it is sent as TIFF.
Note: When the archived format of a page is sent by e-mail, no annotations are included on that page.

74
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

You can use this option to allow images to be sent in their original format. That is, if an image is
imported into AppXtender and sent from AppXtender, the format of the sent image is exactly the
same as the original image before import. A page can be sent in its original format only when all of
the following conditions are true (in addition to the conditions above):
• The image storage format for the image type on the Data tab of the Configuration dialog box was
set to Default when the image was imported.
• The Separate multi-page TIFFs option on the Data tab of the Configuration dialog box was
disabled when the image was imported.
• The page to be sent is not text. (Text is always compressed before storage.)
If these conditions are true, the original format of the page is always sent.

E-mail Vendor

This option configures the e-mail package that is used by AppXtender Document Manager. You can
choose from either Microsoft (MAPI32) or CC: Mail (SMI32).

Export Tab
The Export tab of the AppXtender Document Manager Configuration dialog box provides options
for exporting AppXtender documents and pages. AppXtender Document Manager can export
documents and pages in the system to various file formats.

For instructions on exporting documents, refer to the "Managing Documents" chapter of the
ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide.

Exporting Text and Images in PDF Format

Enable the Use PDF format if possible option to export document images and document text in
PDF format.

Black & White Images for Export

This option determines the file format AppXtender uses for images. Select a file format from the Black
& white images drop-down list. Choices are Windows BMP, TIFF, and TIFF Compressed.

4/8-bit Color Images for Export

This option determines the file format AppXtender uses for 4/8-bit color images. Select an appropriate
file format from the 4/8-bit color images drop-down list. Choices are Windows BMP, Windows BMP
Compressed, GIF, TIFF, and TIFF Compressed.

True Color Images for Export

This option determines the file format AppXtender uses when exporting true color images. Select an
appropriate file format from the True color images drop-down list. Choices are Windows BMP, GIF,
JPEG, TIFF, and TIFF Compressed.
Note: You can compress true color images using Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) image
compression. If you select JPEG, the JPEG quality factor (1-100) is enabled. For more information, see
JPEG Quality Factor (1-100), page 72.

JPEG Quality Factor (1-100)

JPEG provides compression of true color images, such as photographs, artwork, and similar still
images. There is always some loss of information when you use JPEG compression to compress an
image. For example, when compressing a scanned photograph, the output image is not identical to
the input image.

To set the level of JPEG compression for exported images:

1. On the Export tab of the Configuration dialog box, select JPEG from the True color images
drop-down list. The JPEG Quality Factor (1-100) slide ruler becomes available.
2. Use the slide ruler on the scale to adjust (reduce or increase) the level of compression and the
quality factor that AppXtender applies to True color images when they are exported.
3. Click OK to save the settings.

Text for Export

This option determines the file format AppXtender uses when exporting text pages. By selecting As
text, AppXtender exports pages as text and excludes all annotations except redactions. Redactions
cause the area where the redaction is to be blank in the exported page. If you select As image,
AppXtender exports text pages as TIFFs (regardless of the image export settings) and includes all
annotations.

Use Multi-page Files for Export

You can combine sequential pages that are similar or of the same file type and export them as a
combined file or as a sequence of combined files with the Use multi-page files option. For example, a
document composed of a GIF, a TIFF, two PDFs, and three JPEGs (in that order) would be combined
into three files: a TIFF, a PDF, and another TIFF. The first TIFF would contain the GIF and TIFF, the
PDF would contain the two PDFs, and the second TIFF would contain the three JPEGs.

77

Note: AppXtender can combine up to 1024 TIFF pages into a single file. For example, if you export
a document that contains 1025 consecutive TIFF pages, one file contains the first 1024 consecutive
TIFF pages and another file contains the remaining TIFF page.
Files can be combined for export in the same way that they can be combined for e-mail. Use
Multi-page Files for Export, page 77 provides detailed information on how files are combined.
When the Use multi-page files option is disabled, pages of the same type are not combined. If you
export a document when this option is disabled, each page of the document is exported as a separate
file.

Export in Archived Format

The Export in Archived format option allows you to export the archived format of each page. That is,
instead of specifying that images be exported as Windows BMP, Windows BMP Compressed, GIF,
JPEG, TIFF, or TIFF Compressed, you can specify that pages be exported in the same format in which
they were stored in the AppXtender system. A page can be exported in its archived format only
when both of the following conditions are true:
• The current user has sufficient privileges to hide all of the redactions on the page (if there are any).
• The page to be exported is not a certain kind of subpage. (If a subpage number appears after the
BIN file name in the Information dialog box for the page to be exported, it can not be exported
in its archived format. The ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide provides more
information on displaying the information dialog box.
If these conditions are true, the archived format of the page is always exported. If these conditions are
not true, the page is exported as specified with other format options on the Export tab.
For example, if you have the image storage format for black and white images set to TIFF on the Data
tab of the Configuration dialog box, and you import a black and white image into AppXtender, it is
stored in TIFF format. If you enable the Use archived format option on the Export tab, and you export
the same image from AppXtender (and the conditions above are met), it is exported as TIFF.
Note: When the archived format of a page is exported, no annotations are included on that page.
You can use this option to allow images to be exported in their original format. That is, if an image is
imported into AppXtender and exported from AppXtender, the format of the exported image is the
same as the original image before import. A page can be exported in its original format only when all
of the following conditions are true (in addition to the conditions above):
• The image storage format for the image type on the Data tab of the Configuration dialog box was
set to Default when the image was imported.
• The Separate multi-page TIFFs option on the Data tab of the Configuration dialog box was
disabled when the image was imported.
• The page to be exported is not text. (Text is always compressed before storage.)
If these conditions are true, the original format of the page is always exported.

File Types Tab

The File Types tab of the Configuration dialog box provides options for importing files into
AppXtender. By default, files not natively supported by AppXtender (for example, files other
than TIFF, Windows bitmaps, TGA, RTF, JPEG, GIF, PCX, and DCX) are imported as foreign files.
(For details on what file types are natively supported, refer to the "Getting Started" chapter of the
ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide.) Pages imported as foreign files are represented in
AppXtender Document Manager in one of the following two ways:
• Represented by an icon and require a third-party viewer to display the contents of the page
• Displayed in the KeyView Viewer. For more information, see Use KeyView to Display Foreign
Files, page 55.
For example, if a Microsoft Word document is imported (using the Import File function) as a new
page, a Word icon displays as the AppXtender page. Double-click the icon to start Word and view the
document. The File Type tab provides options for importing file types or extensions.

AppXtender supports different file types in a variety of ways:

• Microsoft Word documents can be brought into AppXtender as OLE Objects, in which case the
File Types settings do not matter. File Types settings apply only when a document or page is
brought into AppXtender using the Import File command.
• AppXtender does not support progressive JPEGs. Importing a progressive JPEG into AppXtender
results in the file being imported as a foreign file.
• By default, most text pages are imported into AppXtender as plain text, but some may be
imported as foreign files. If you want to import all files with a TXT extension as plain text, add
this file type in the File Types tab.

79
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Adding File Types

The File Types tab of the Configuration dialog box allows you to configure AppXtender Document
Manager to recognize files by their extensions as certain file types. For example, you can configure
AppXtender Document Manager to recognize files with the TXT extension as the Text file type.

To add a file type:

1. In the File Extension text box, type the extension that you want AppXtender Document Manager
to recognize.
2. Select a file type from the File Type drop-down list. The File Type options available are Image
Format, Text, Rich Text Format, Embedded Object, Foreign File, Web Component, and Adobe
PDF.
3. Click Add. The extension and file type are added to the Formats list.
4. Click OK to save the settings.

Deleting File Types

The File Types tab of the Configuration dialog box allows you to remove extensions from the list of
recognized file types.

To delete a file type:

1. In the Formats list, select the file type you want to delete.
2. Click Delete. The file type is removed from the Formats list.
3. Click OK to save the settings.

Enable Dual Data Entry

The Enable dual data entry option on the Data tab works in conjunction with the Dual Data Entry flag
configured in AppXtender AppGen. This option is enabled by default.
Note: In order for dual data entry to be available for an index field, your system administrator must
first enable the Dual Data Entry flag for that field in AppXtender AppGen. The ApplicationXtender
Core Components Administrator’s Guide provides more information about dual data entry.
The Dual Data Entry flag and the Enable dual data entry option together form a validation measure
that ensures documents are indexed correctly. When this feature is enabled, you must enter an
index field’s data twice. AppXtender Document Manager accepts the information upon verification
of the second entry. If the information entered the second time is the same as the first time, the
document is indexed and added to the application. If the information is not entered correctly, a Dual
Data Entry Error dialog box appears.
Note: If an Auto Index table is used to enter a value into an index field, even if that field is flagged for
dual data entry, the user is not prompted to enter data a second time. For , consult your AppXtender
system administrator or refer to the "Import Wizards" appendix of the ApplicationXtender Core
Components Administrator’s Guide. The ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide provides
more information on importing data into an Auto Index table.

To activate dual data entry:

1. During application generation in the AppXtender AppGen, apply the Dual Data Entry flag to
each index field that requires the validation feature.
2. In AppXtender Document Manager, in the Configuration dialog box, click the Data tab.
3. Make sure that the Enable dual data entry option is enabled. (This option is enabled by default.)
4. Click OK to save the settings.

Disable Query Window

This option allows AppXtender system administrators to control what queries are run in AppXtender.
This option limits access to the Query view on the AppXtender Document Manager machine.
This option is intended for systems where the AppXtender SDK has been used to set up access to
AppXtender from another interface. You can use this option to force users to run queries from
another interface instead of AppXtender.

Database Connect & Drop

This option controls the duration of the database connection held by AppXtender Document
Manager. By default, the Database connect & drop option is disabled.
• If this option is disabled, the AppXtender Document Manager data layer holds the connection to
the underlying database for the entire AppXtender Document Manager session.
• If this option is enabled, the AppXtender Document Manager data layer connects to the database
when needed and then drops the connection when it is not needed.
Because the user is connecting to the database and then dropping the connection when it is not
needed, if the database goes down and back up or if the database fails over in a clustered server
environment, AppXtender Document Manager connects to the restarted database or the new
database. However, because users are connecting and dropping, there is performance degradation
when this option is enabled (because database connect and drop depends on the data source’s ability
to perform connection pooling).
If you are planning to run AppXtender Document Manager in a clustered environment, you must
enable the Database connect & drop option. The ApplicationXtender Concepts and Planning Guide
provides more information on clustering.

Check for Matching Index

If this option is enabled, AppXtender Document Manager will automatically check existing
documents for a duplicate index. This option allows the same index value or combination of index
values to be entered for more than one document in an application.

Allow Remember Password

This option controls the display of the Remember password option on the Login dialog box for
AppXtender Document Manager. By default, the Allow remember password option is enabled.
The following table indicates the result of enabling or disabling the Allow remember password option
on the AppXtender Document Manager Configuration dialog box:

82
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

box appears with the Remember
password option.
Disabled AppXtender Document The next time you start AppXtender
Manager Document Manager, the Login dialog
box appears without the Remember
password option.

Prompt for Check Out When Open

This option controls the operational mode of AppXtender for the AppXtender Document Manager
machine. If this option is enabled, the AppXtender Document Manager machine operates in check
in/check out mode. If the option is disabled, the AppXtender Document Manager machine operates
in normal mode. In check in/check out mode, users are prompted to either check out a document or
open it in read-only mode when they display the document. In AppXtender Document Manager
normal mode, users can check out documents if needed, but they are not required to do so to make
changes to a document (as long as the document is not checked out to someone else).
When a user checks a document out, AppXtender makes a separate working copy of the document.
Any changes made to the document while the user has it checked out are made to the copy. If the
user decides to check the document back in, the working copy is saved as either a new document
revision or a replacement document revision of the original document. If the user decides to cancel
changes, the working copy is discarded by AppXtender.
When AppXtender is in check in/check out mode, use of revision control with AppXtender
documents is mandatory. A user must check out a document to modify it. If the user does not check
the document out, it is opened in read-only mode and it cannot be modified.
When AppXtender Document Manager is in normal mode, users can open and modify documents
without checking them out. When a user closes a document, the modifications are automatically
saved to the AppXtender document repository. Users can check out documents while AppXtender
is in normal mode, to prevent other users from making modifications while they are working on a
document. This is useful if making the document modifications will extend past the current user
session.
If a user checks out a document and another user accesses that document while in normal mode, the
second user automatically receives the AppXtender repository copy of the checked out document in
read-only mode and is not able to make changes to the document until it is checked back in.
A similar option in AppXtender AppGen enables check in/check out mode on an application basis,
rather than a machine basis. If you need to configure your AppXtender system to comply with the
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), it is recommended that you
enable check in/check out mode on an application basis. The ApplicationXtender Core Components
Administrator’s Guide provides more information on configuring AppXtender to comply with HIPAA.

Auto Logout
You can configure the AppXtender Document Manager machine to automatically log out of
AppXtender Document Manager after a specified period of idle time. An idle machine is one on
which the pointer and cursor have not been moved over any AppXtender interface, no dialog boxes
or messages have appeared, and the current user is not logged onto any active data source as SYSOP.
• To configure Auto Logout, in the Auto Logout text box, specify the number of minutes that
you want to allow an AppXtender Document Manager machine to remain idle. (The maximum
number of minutes that you can enter is 480.) When that time is up, the user is automatically
logged out of AppXtender Document Manager.
• To disable Auto Logout, in the Auto Logout text box, type 0 (zero).

Data Field 2 Digit Year Max Future Years Setting

When a date has been stored in a two-digit date format, AppXtender Document Manager interprets
the date in the context of a range of one hundred years. For example, in the context of the range 1910
to 2009, AppXtender Document Manager interprets the year 08 as 2008 instead of 1908.
AppXtender Document Manager calculates the end of this range by adding the number that you
specify in the Max Future Years Setting text box to the current year. For example, if the current year is
2005 and you specify the value 25, AppXtender Document Manager would interpret each two-digit
date in the context of the range 1931-2030. This option applies only to two-digit date formats.
It is not necessary to update this option each year, because AppXtender Document Manager calculates
the range of years based on the current year. To continue the previous example (in which you have
specified 25 in the Max Future Years Setting text box), in the year 2006, AppXtender Document
Manager would interpret each two-digit date in the context of the range 1932-2031.
The default value for the Max Future Years Setting is 10. If you use the default value of 10, in the
year 1999, AppXtender Document Manager would interpret any two-digit year between 00 and 09
as 2000-2009 respectively. AppXtender Document Manager would interpret any date between 10
and 99 as 1910-1999.

Image Storage Format

You can configure the default storage format for AppXtender Document Manager image files. These
settings determine the storage format for documents, batches, and pages created from scanning.
These settings also determine to what storage format imported documents, batches, and pages
are converted. This applies to all document imports, such as creating a new document, batch, or
page using the Import File command; using the Index Image Import wizard and an import file that
precedes each image file name with two "@" symbols (@@); creating a new document or page from
a fax-in queue; and so on.

 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Storage Format for Black & White Images

This option determines the file format that AppXtender Document Manager uses to store bi-tonal
images. Select an appropriate file format from the Black & White drop-down list. Your choices are
Default, TIFF, and Windows BMP:
• If you select Default on the Configuration dialog box, imported bi-tonal images are stored in their
native format (for example, a GIF file would be stored as GIF) and scanned bi-tonal images are
stored as TIFF.
• If you select one of the specific image formats on the Configuration dialog box, all bi-tonal images
are stored in that format, regardless of their original format.

Storage Format for 4/8-bit Color Images

This option determines the file format that AppXtender Document Manager uses for 4/8-bit color
images. Select an appropriate file format from the 4/8-Bit Color drop-down list. Your choices are
Default, TIFF, and Windows BMP:
• If you select Default, imported 4/8-bit color images are stored in their native format (for example,
a GIF file would be stored as GIF) and scanned 4/8-bit color images are stored as TIFF.
• If you select one of the specific image formats, all 4/8-bit color images are stored in that format,
regardless of their original format.

Storage Format for True Color Images

This option determines the file format that AppXtender Document Manager uses to store true color
images. Select an appropriate file format from the True Color drop-down list. Your choices are
Default, TIFF, Windows BMP, and JPEG.
• If you select Default, imported true color images are stored in their native format (for example, a
GIF file would be stored as GIF) and scanned true color images are stored as TIFF.
• If you select one of the specific image formats, all true color images are stored in that format,
regardless of their original format.
Note: You can compress true color images using Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) image
compression. If you select JPEG, JPEG compression is enabled. You can set the JPEG Quality Factor
(1-100) slider to control the level of compression and the quality of the compressed images. JPEG
Quality Factor (1-100), page 72 provides more information on compressing images using this slider.

JPEG Quality Factor (1-100)

JPEG provides compression of true color images, such as photographs, artwork, and similar still
images. There is always some loss of information when you use JPEG compression to compress an
image. For example, when compressing a scanned photograph, the output image is not identical to
the input image.

85
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

JPEG compression allows you to trade off between file size and output image quality. In most
cases, you want to obtain a minimum file size by choosing the maximum amount of compression
without affecting the output image quality. However, if image quality is not important, you can
use a higher compression level to make an extremely small file. Conversely, if the image quality is
important, you can use a lesser compression level to increase the quality until there is no visible
change to the output image.
The JPEG quality factor (1-100) slider allows you to choose the compression setting for true color
images. AppXtender Document Manager uses the JPEG quality factor scale, which ranges from 1
to 100, where 1 indicates the smallest file size with the lowest quality and 100 indicates the largest
file size with the best quality.

To set the level of JPEG compression for stored images:

1. On the Data tab of the Configuration dialog box, select JPEG from the True color images
drop-down list. The JPEG Quality Factor (1-100) slide ruler becomes available.
2. From the True Color drop-down list, select JPEG.
3. Use the slide ruler on the scale to adjust (reduce or increase) the level of compression and the
quality factor that AppXtender Document Manager applies to True Color images when they
are stored.
4. Click OK to save the settings.

Separate Multi-page TIFFs

This option controls how AppXtender Document Manager imports a multi-page TIFF or multi-page
DCX file.

86
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

If this option is enabled:

• AppXtender Document Manager imports a multi-page TIFF or multi-page DCX file by separating
each page of the imported file into a page within the new document or batch. Each page is stored
as a separate BIN file.
• File storage format for multi-page image files depends on the image storage format settings
discussed above (for black and white, 4/8-bit color, or true color settings).
• AppXtender Document Manager applies the selected image storage format (for example, BMP) to
each stored page separated from the multi-page file.
• If the image storage format is set to Default, all multi-page image files are saved in the file’s
native format.
If this option is disabled:
• AppXtender Document Manager imports a multi-page TIFF or multi-page DCX file in its native
format, regardless of the image storage format settings discussed above. All of the pages in the
multi-page file are stored together as one BIN file.
• Disabling this option greatly increases the speed at which system conversion is completed.

Paths Tab
The Paths tab of the Configuration dialog box allows you to configure local and personal write paths
for the AppXtender Document Manager machine. These are separate from the write paths established
in AppXtender AppGen for the application. You may also enter volume label search drive(s) for
the AppXtender Document Manager machine. This setting tells AppXtender Document Manager
to look at the specified drives for the images.

Path settings are saved in the Windows registry for each AppXtender Document Manager machine.
When you configure path settings on the Paths tab in the AppXtender Document Manager

87
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Configuration dialog box, the settings are saved to the same place in the registry and apply only to
the machine where the configuration takes place.

Local Write Path

Using this option, you can activate a temporary storage area for scanning in AppXtender Document
Manager, such as a local hard drive. A different local write path can be configured for each data
source. If you index documents when scanning locally in AppXtender Document Manager, the
index information is stored in the AppXtender application just as if you had scanned to the primary
document write path, except the images are stored locally. The Local Write Path option enables you to
use the local write path when needed and the document write path at other times. When this option
is enabled, documents are stored in the path entered in the Local Write Path text box.

Caution: Do not enable a local write path on the AppXtender Document Manager machine
where the AppXtender Index Agent is installed. If a local write path is configured and enabled
when you attempt to start the AppXtender Index Agent, an error message appears and the
AppXtender Index Agent automatically shuts down.
Note:
• The Local Write Path option should be enabled when scanning locally. The option remains
enabled until you clear the check box in the Paths tab of the Configuration dialog box.
• You cannot use volume labels for the local write path.

Personal Search Path

Using this option, you can configure additional paths to search for AppXtender documents or
batches. If documents or batches for an application are stored in a location that is not referenced in
any of the other path settings, a personal search path should be set to allow for retrieval of those
documents or batches.
When retrieving documents or batches, AppXtender Document Manager searches first in the primary
search path, then the application’s write path, and then the paths listed in the Personal Search Path
text box. AppXtender Document Manager then searches all the remaining configured write paths.

Volume Label Search Drives

The Paths tab of the Configuration dialog box allows you to specify the drives that AppXtender
Document Manager searches to find documents or batches that were stored on removable media
using volume labels.
If removable media with volume labels are used as document write paths to store documents or
batches, this option is used to configure retrieval of those documents or batches. The drive letter (or
letters) where the media is mounted must be specified as Volume Label Search Drives. AppXtender
Document Manager checks each of the drives specified to determine if the media labeled with the

88
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

volume label is mounted in one of those drives. If not, the user is prompted to insert the appropriate
media.

To specify a drive:
1. You have the following choices:
• In the Volume Label Search Drive(s) text box, type the drive letter. (To specify multiple drives,
type each drive letter separated by a semicolon.)
• Click Select. Select a drive. (To specify multiple drives, hold down the [CTRL] key or [SHIFT]
key while selecting the drives.)
2. Click OK to save the settings.

Business Intelligence Gateway Path

The Paths tab of the Configuration dialog box allows you to configure the path for submitting
documents/reports to BI Gateway. This path must be configured before submission to BI Gateway
is allowed. The ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide provides more information on
the BI Gateway.

To specify a BI Gateway path:

1. In the Business Intelligence Gateway path text box, type the path to the location where the
ERMX.INI file was stored by AppXtender Reports Mgmt.
2. Click OK to save the settings.

Full Text Tab

The Full Text tab of the AppXtender Document Manager Configuration dialog box provides options
for full-text indexing. The following is an explanation of the Full Text tab options that are available
for your use.

89
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Processing Queue
Use this option to choose the queue that is used to process full-text indexing jobs. Full-text queues
are created in the AppXtender Index Agent Configuration dialog box or in AppXtender Queue
Manager and can be selected at any AppXtender Document Manager machine. Select the queue from
the Processing Queue drop-down list.
Note: When considering which queues to assign to each machine, keep in mind that you cannot use
more than one AppXtender Index Agent for the same AppXtender application.

Allow Full-text
Using this option, you can make all full-text commands unavailable to an AppXtender Document
Manager machine. This option may be useful when, for example, you are configuring a machine
for a user who does not need to use full text and you have a limited number of full-text licenses. If
this option is enabled for an AppXtender Document Manager machine when a user logs in to that
machine, a full-text license is used.

To make all Full-Text commands unavailable on an AppXtender Document Manager

machine:
1. Disable the Allow full-text option.
2. Restart AppXtender Document Manager. The full-text commands are now unavailable on this
machine.

90
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Convert to Text (if necessary)

When this option is enabled, all image pages that you submit to the AppXtender Index Agent for
full-text indexing are automatically processed using optical character recognition (OCR). When this
option is not selected, you must use OCR to process an image page before you can submit it. In
addition, when the OCR option is not selected, only text pages can be submitted to the AppXtender
Index Agent.
Note: When you submit an image to the AppXtender Index Agent for full-text indexing, if the OCR
(if necessary) option is enabled and if the image does require OCR processing, the result of the
OCR processing is automatically plain text, regardless of the OCR Result Format configuration
on the OCR tab.

Prompt User with Queue Selection

When this option is selected, AppXtender Document Manager will prompt you to pick a full-text
queue every time a job is submitted to the AppXtender Index Agent. Disabling this option will
result in every full-text index job being submitted to the queue selected in the Processing Queue
drop-down list.

Submit New Documents for Full-text Index

When this option is enabled, all new documents (that are imported or scanned into AppXtender) are
automatically submitted to the AppXtender Index Agent for full-text indexing. When the document
is saved and closed, a message appears indicating that the full text index job has been submitted to
the AppXtender Index Agent. For instructions on configuring the AppXtender Index Agent, consult
your AppXtender system administrator or refer to the ApplicationXtender Index Agent Administration
Guide. For instructions on creating a document, refer to the "Creating Documents" chapter of the
ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide.

OCR Tab
The OCR tab of the AppXtender Document Manager Configuration dialog box contains options for
using optical character recognition (OCR) with AppXtender.

91
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

OCR Engine
Using this option, you can choose the OCR engine to be used by AppXtender. The FineReader OCR
Engine option is always available as an OCR engine.

Allow OCR
Using this option, you can make all OCR commands unavailable to an AppXtender Document
Manager machine. This option may be useful when, for example, you are configuring a machine for a
user who does not need to use OCR.
Note: To make all OCR commands available, check the Allow OCR check box and restart AppXtender
Document Manager

To make all OCR commands unavailable on an AppXtender Document Manager

92
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

OCR Result Format

Using this option, you can choose the OCR output file format. When you use OCR to process
documents or pages in AppXtender, they are stored in the selected file format. Select either Plain text
(TXT), or Rich text format (RTF). The following table explains each file format.

Option Description
Plain text The plain text format is an ASCII text format, readable on
(TXT) MS-DOS/Windows operating systems. Plain text format retains
formatting options that are available in MS-DOS text format,
such as bold and italics.
Rich text Rich text format is a format that can be read on all platforms.
format (RTF) This format should be used if the document text is exported
for use on non-MS-DOS/Windows systems. Rich text format
retains most formatting.

Note: If Rich text format is selected, documents processed using OCR cannot be indexed using OCR
proofing. Only plain text documents can be indexed using OCR Proofing.

Language Selection
The Language Selection drop-down list allows you to select from a variety of languages. Selection of
a language that matches the images to be processed improves the results of OCR processing. For
example, if you select Spanish, the results of OCR processing is better for images of Spanish text
than for images of English text. The language selection in the OCR tab of the Configuration dialog
box sets the default for the machine. The languages that are available for selection depend on the
OCR engine you chose.

OCR Job
The following topics describe the two ways that you can configure OCR jobs.

Processing Queue

Use this option to choose the queue that is used to process OCR jobs. OCR queues can be created in
the AppXtender Index Agent Configuration dialog box or in AppXtender Queue Manager and can be
selected at any AppXtender Document Manager machine. Select the queue you want to use from the
Processing Queue drop-down list. The ApplicationXtender Index Agent Administration Guide provides
more information on creating an OCR queue.

93
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Prompt User with Queue Selection

When this option is selected, AppXtender Document Manager prompts the user to select an OCR
queue each time a job is submitted to the AppXtender Index Agent. Disabling this option results in
every OCR job being submitted to the queue selected in the Processing Queue drop-down list.

94
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Thumbnail Tab
The Thumbnail tab of the AppXtender Document Manager Configuration dialog box allows you to
configure the Thumbnail view.

The following table describes each option on the Thumbnail Tab:

Option Description
Thumbnail Width (pixels) Allows you to specify the width of the
thumbnails, in pixels. You can choose from
48, 64, 80, 96, and 128.
Thumbnail Height (pixels) Allows you to specify the height of the
thumbnails, in pixels. You can choose from
48, 64, 80, 96, and 128.

of the thumbnails. You can choose from
any of the color depths available for your
monitor, including 16-Color, 256-Color,
and True Color, up to 24-Bit Color. The
color depth 16-Color is enough for most
thumbnails.
Render foreign file Allows you to display thumbnails of
foreign files as miniature images, rather
than as icons. To display the thumbnail of
a foreign file as a miniature image, you
must also have the foreign file configured
to display as an image, rather than as an

Saving and Loading Settings

To make AppXtender system deployment easier for you, Save Settings and Load Settings features
allow you to copy machine settings from one AppXtender Document Manager machine to another.
You (or the user) customize the configuration of the AppXtender Document Manager machine
in several ways, and then you save the configuration. To copy the saved configuration to other
machines, you then just load the saved settings file on each machine and all of the saved configuration
settings are applied. The following topics detail the settings that are saved and explain how to
save and load settings.

99
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Saving Settings
Once the AppXtender Document Manager machine has been configured, you can save the customized
settings to a configuration file. The saved settings file can be loaded on other AppXtender Document
Manager machines to copy the saved configuration settings to those machines.
Note: If a profile is created in one version of AppXtender, this profile cannot be applied to later
versions of AppXtender. You must save a new settings file for each AppXtender release.
When you save settings for a machine, AppXtender saves information about all of the options in the
Configuration dialog box. When you load the settings on another machine, the settings you saved are
loaded for that machine. If an option is enabled on the machine where the settings are saved, the
option is enabled on the other machine once you load the settings.
In addition to Configuration dialog box options, Save Settings saves information about the views
and toolbars on the AppXtender Document Manager window. If, for example, Allow Docking is
enabled for the Query view on the machine where you save settings, Allow Docking is enabled on the
AppXtender Document Manager window of the second machine once you load settings. Additional
information saved when you save settings includes default settings for annotations, the data source
configurations on the AppXtender Document Manager machine, and the last directories used for
several AppXtender Document Manager functions. For details on setting AppXtender annotation
defaults, refer to the ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide. The ApplicationXtender Core
Components Guide provides more information on setting up AppXtender data sources.
For a detailed list of the settings that are saved, see Saved Machine Settings, page 102.

To save a machine settings file:

1. Make the appropriate changes to the Configuration settings, annotation defaults, data source
configuration, and window arrangement.
2. Select Save Settings from the File menu. The Save AppXtender Document Manager Settings
dialog box appears.

100
 Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

3. If you want to specify the type of file you are saving, from the Save as type drop-down list,
select the type of files that you want to save. Your available choices are AppXtender Document
Manager Settings Files (*.AXS) or All Files (*.*).
4. Select the location to save the file. You can select the location from the Save in drop-down list and
double-click a folder or file in the box below to open it, or enter a path and file name.
5. You also have the following options:
• To save the AppXtender Document Manager machine configuration settings, leave the
AppXtender Document Manager Settings check box enabled. Enabling this option saves all
AppXtender Document Manager configuration settings, toolbar configuration, views, and
status bar settings.
• To save data source settings, leave the XSCM.Config check box enabled. For more information,
see Important Information about XSCM.CONFIG, page 101.
6. Click Save. The file is saved in the specified location.

Important Information about XSCM.CONFIG

When you use AppXtender Administrator, Component Registration Wizard, Data Source Selector, or
Web services, settings are read from and written to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\XSCM.CONFIG. Each component writes different settings to this file.

Caution: Do not edit or distribute the XSCM.CONFIG file.

The recommended method for providing each user with access to a data source group is to have
each user use the AppXtender Data Source Selector to locate a data source, as described in the
ApplicationXtender Document Manager User’s Guide.
However, the XSCM.Config file check box on the Load AppXtender Document Manager Settings
dialog box and the Save AppXtender Document Manager Settings dialog box provides another
method for distributing data source connectivity. When you save machine settings with the
XSCM.Config file check box selected, the contents of the XSCM.CONFIG file are included in the
AppXtender Document Manager settings file. The contents of the XSCM.CONFIG file are located at
the end of the AppXtender Document Manager settings file starting with line [XSCM.CFG].
The AppXtender Document Manager settings file can be distributed to other AppXtender Document
Manager machines. When your users load an AppXtender Document Manager settings file that has
an [XSCM.CFG] section in it, with the XSCM.Config file check box selected, a new XSCM.CONFIG file
is created. Each user is then prompted to log in to the default data source, as specified in the new
XSCM.CONFIG file.

101
Configuring AppXtender Document Manager Machines

Caution: If you choose to use this method for distributing data source connectivity, you must
take both of the following precautions:

• Ensure that AppXtender Administrator, Component Registration Wizard, Web services, Web
Access, Rendering Server, and Web Services have not been installed on any of the computers on
which you intend to save or load the AppXtender Document Manager machine settings.
• Ensure that no changes are made in AppXtender Administrator or Component Registration
Wizard on any computer in your AppXtender system between saving and loading AppXtender
Document Manager machine settings.
If problems occur after deployment on an AppXtender Document Manager machine, use the
AppXtender Data Source Selector to locate a data source, as described in the ApplicationXtender
Document Manager User’s Guide. If problems occur after deployment on a machine with AppXtender
Web components, run AppXtender Component Registration Wizard to register components again as
described in the ApplicationXtender Web Access Administrator’s Guide.

Upgrading AppXtender System

The following topics explain how to upgrade to the current version of AppXtender:
• Concepts, page 111
• Upgrading the Current Version of AppXtender, page 113
You can upgrade from AppXtender 5.4 SP1 or higher. If you want to upgrade from an older version,
please contact EMC Support.
Note: You must upgrade the database if you upgrade from versions earlier than AppXtender 6.5.

Concepts
Before you upgrade the AppXtender system, review the following concepts:
• Connectivity Between Releases, page 111
• Understanding a Workstation Upgrade, page 112
• Security Providers and Upgrading, page 112
• One AppXtender Admin Login Account for All Data Sources, page 112

Connectivity Between Releases

When you upgrade your AppXtender database, EMC recommends upgrading your AppXtender
Document Manager and Web Access workstations at the same time. If you must delay upgrading
some workstations, do not use any new features until the entire system has been upgraded. Also, do
not use any administrative components from previous releases.
Note: Connecting from the workstation in this section means logging into the data source from
AppXtender Document Manager. If you log into the data source from AppXtender Admin or
AppGen, a message appears asking if you want to upgrade the database.

111
Upgrading AppXtender System

Understanding a Workstation Upgrade

When you upgrade a workstation, the setup wizard performs each of the following tasks in the
order listed:
• During uninstallation, the setup wizard removes:
— AppXtender Desktop components and services from the selected installation directory
— Components from the Windows registry
Note: The setup wizard does not remove the Demo database nor the document files within
Demo database.
• During installation, the setup wizard:
— Installs the new release
— Registers new components

Security Providers and Upgrading

You can switch to a different security provider after you upgrade all your AppXtender databases and
workstations to the current version of AppXtender.

Caution: All of the workstations on the AppXtender system must be upgraded before you
switch security providers.

Caution: If you change the security provider in use, all current security information in
AppXtender AppGen is permanently deleted. You must then recreate all groups and their
privileges, users and their privileges, Document Level Security settings, and annotation group
settings. You might also have License Server considerations. The ApplicationXtender Core
Components Administrator’s Guide provides more information on security providers.
Note: If you upgrade a data source containing an _RSTAMP application, and if the AppXtender
system is using the Windows security provider, you must add the DOMAIN index field to the
_RSTAMP application.

One AppXtender Admin Login Account for All Data

Sources
When you log into AppXtender Admin, you are logging into all of the data sources in AppXtender
Admin simultaneously. If all of the data sources in AppXtender Admin are using either the CM

112
 Upgrading AppXtender System

security provider or the Windows security provider, the user account that you use to log into
AppXtender Admin must meet the following criteria:
• It must exist on all data sources.
• It must have the same password on all data sources.
• It must have the Administrator user privilege on each data source. (This criterion does not apply
to SYSOP.)
If any data source in AppXtender Admin is using another security provider, such as a directory
service security provider, only SYSOP may log in to AppXtender Admin. In this case, SYSOP must
have the same password on all data sources.
For this reason, make sure there is at least one user account that satisfies these criteria before you
begin the upgrade process. If such a user account is not in place before you upgrade, it may be more
difficult to set up data sources in AppXtender Admin after the upgrade. For more information, see
the ApplicationXtender Core Components Administrator’s Guide.

Upgrading the Current Version of AppXtender

To upgrade to the latest version of the AppXtender Database:
1. Ensure all batches and auto-index data have been processed.
2. Back up and restrict access to your databases. For instructions, see Preparing AppXtender
Databases for Upgrade, page 114.
3. If any of your databases are no longer supported by AppXtender, upgrade each to a supported
database. For a list of supported databases, refer to the ApplicationXtender Release Notes. For
instructions on upgrading your database to a version that is supported by AppXtender, refer to
the documentation for your database.
Note: Refer to the ApplicationXtender Release Notes for third-party components you need to
upgrade.
4. Remove old versions of AppXtender products from the machine.
5. Install AppXtender Admin. AppXtender Admin can be installed as part of an Administrator or
Custom installation of AppXtender Desktop. For instructions, see Setup, page 12.
6. Use AppXtender Admin to upgrade one database on the system and AppXtender AppGen to
upgrade the remaining databases. For instructions, see Upgrading the AppXtender Database,
page 114.
7. If you want to switch to a different security, it is recommended that you do so at this point in
the upgrade process. For more information, refer to the ApplicationXtender Core Components
Administrator’s Guide.
8. Upgrade each remaining AppXtender system workstation.
9. Remove the database restriction after all remaining workstations have been upgraded.

113
Upgrading AppXtender System

Preparing AppXtender Databases for Upgrade

EMC recommends using the following procedure to prepare your AppXtender databases for the
upgrade.

To prepare AppXtender databases for upgrade:

1. Back up your existing databases. Use the utilities included within the database programs to
perform the backup. For more information, refer to the documentation for your database
program.
2. If you are upgrading an AppXtender system that has more than one user, restrict access to the
database. This is necessary to prevent any other users on the AppXtender system from interfering
with the upgrade process.

Upgrading the AppXtender Database

After you have backed up and restricted access to your database and installed AppXtender Admin,
you are ready to upgrade the database.

To upgrade the database:

1. From the Windows Start menu, select Programs > ApplicationXtender Desktop > Administrator.
The next step depends on whether AppXtender Admin detects an XSCM.config file on the
computer:
• If AppXtender Admin does not detect an XSCM.config file on the computer, the AppXtender
Admin Startup Wizard appears. Create a connection to the first database that you want to
upgrade and then skip to Step 5.
• If AppXtender Admin detects an XSCM.config file on the computer, the Login dialog box
appears. Enter a user name and password for an account that exists on all of the data sources
you intend to upgrade. (Use SYSOP or any user account that has the Administrator privilege.)
A database upgrade message appears.

Caution: If you start this upgrade process before running the database upgrade scripts as
described in , this upgrade process can take a long time. Do not end the task, even if the
status of the task is Not responding in Task Manager.
2. Click Yes. AppXtender Admin upgrades the tables in the default data source.
3. Click Close to close the AppXtender Table Create dialog box.

114
 Upgrading AppXtender System

4. If another message appears indicating the user profile schema must also be upgraded, you can do
one of the following:
• Upgrade the user profile schema now. Click OK.
• Upgrade the user profile schema later. Click Cancel.
5. Upgrade the remaining data sources in the AppXtender system:
• To use AppXtender AppGen, start AppGen, login to the data source, and follow the prompt to
upgrade the database. AppGen prompts you to enter the data source password if the data
source uses a different password than the default data source.
• To use AppXtender Admin, start AppXtender Admin, select Environment > Data Source,
select the data source, and click Upgrade.
Note: AppXtender Admin highlights data sources that need to be upgraded in gray.
6. Verify each database has been converted successfully.
For more information, refer to the ApplicationXtender Core Components Administrator’s Guide.

Selecting a Different Security Provider

After you have upgraded your AppXtender databases and workstations, you can switch to a different
security provider. The ApplicationXtender Concepts and Planning Guide provides more information
on security providers.

Caution: All workstations on the AppXtender system must be upgraded before you switch
security providers. Also, if you change the security provider setting for an existing data source,
all current security information in AppXtender AppGen is permanently deleted. You must then
recreate all groups and their privileges, users and their privileges, Document Level Security
settings, and annotation group settings. Use caution when switching security providers,
especially in a production environment.

To change the security provider:

1. Start AppXtender Admin.
2. In the AppXtender Admin tree, expand the Environment node and then select Data Sources.
3. In the upper part of the right pane, select the data source you want to modify.
4. In the lower part of the right pane, select Security Model.
5. From the drop-down list, select the security provider that you want to use. If you want to use a
directory service security provider and if it is not available in the list, you must create it.
6. From the File menu, select Save Changes.
7. Open AppXtender AppGen with this data source set as default. A message appears indicating
that the security provider for the current data source has been changed in AppXtender Admin.

115
Upgrading AppXtender System

Note: If you click Yes, all current security information in AppXtender AppGen is permanently
deleted. Use caution when switching security providers, especially in a production environment.
8. If you are certain that you want to change the security provider in use, click Yes.
9. Recreate all groups and their privileges, users and their privileges, Document Level Security
settings, and annotation group settings.

122
 Glossary

This glossary contains terms related to ApplicationXtender (AppXtender) components. Many of

these terms are used in this manual.

accessible security
Accessible security grants access to the users in the group for only documents with index
field values matching the secured value list. (See also Document Level Security.)

annotation
An annotation is a note or a shape added to a document or batch page, typically to focus
attention on a particular part of the page. Users can use annotations to comment on the
contents of a page, block areas of the page from view, or highlight important information.
When a user creates an annotation, it is associated with the AppXtender page on which he
or she created it. Annotations are edited and stored separately from the image, but they
are displayed along with the image in ApplicationXtender Document Manager and Web
Access. The types of annotations available include text, highlighting, lines, arrows, shapes,
and rubber stamps.

annotation group
Annotation groups allow you to create associations between users, groups, and specific
annotations. You can specify which users and groups can view or modify specific
annotations, and which users and groups can hide or modify specific redactions.

appender
An appender allows you to select the specific ApplicationXtender Web Access .NET or
Rendering Server information you want to log and to publish that information to a specific
reporting venue.

application
An AppXtender application is an index-driven data storage structure where documents can
be stored and retrieved. An AppXtender application is based on an index that is composed of
one or many fields. AppXtender applications are created in ApplicationXtender Application
Generator (AppXtender AppGen).

application security profile

Application security profiles, like global security profiles, allow you to grant a particular set
of privileges to a user or group of users. You can define different privileges for a user or
group of users in each application.
When a profile is application-specific, however, the privilege settings are not carried over to
a new application when it is created. If a group of users has an application-specific profile
for a certain application, but no global profile, then when a new application is created, the

123
Glossary

members of the group will not be able to access the new application. Application-specific
security settings override global security settings.

ApplicationXtender Auto Index Import

AppXtender Auto Index Import allows use of the <F7> key to import index values from a text
file, so users adding documents can automatically populate indexes using the imported data.
Auto Index is ideal for the import of index records that are applicable to only one document.
In an Auto Index Import table, once a record (or a group of index values) has been used
to index a document, the record is deleted.

ApplicationXtender Index Image Import

AppXtender Index Image Import allows you to import index data and document files in a
single step. A text file is required which contains a line of text for each document to be
imported, with a value for each index field and a reference to the location of the file to be
imported. No manual document indexing is required.

ApplicationXtender Index Agent

ApplicationXtender Index Agent is an optional module that adds full-text indexing and
OCR functionality to AppXtender systems.

ApplicationXtender Key Reference Import

AppXtender Key Reference Import allows use of the <Tab> key to import index values from a
text file. Key Reference is most effectively used in situations where each imported record
may describe several documents. Key Reference Import maintains the index records in the
Key Reference table even after records have been used to index documents. Any change
made to a record in the Key Reference table is reflected in the indexes of all documents
described by that record.

audit trail
The Audit Trails feature allows you to track user activity within the AppXtender system.
System-wide activities such as the creation, modification, and deletion of applications, users,
and groups can be tracked. You can also track user activity in applications by tracking items
such as the creation and deletion of documents, the addition of pages, and the modification
of index information for documents. By default, AppXtender logs audit trail events to a
table in the AppXtender database. You can configure audit trails to log to this table, to a log
file, or to both locations.

authentication
Authentication requires all users to enter a valid user name and password to access software
modules. Authentication ensures that each user is who he or she claims to be.

authorization
Authorization is the granting of specific access privileges according to the user name.
Security profiles contain information pertaining to a user’s specific privileges within the
AppXtender system.

check in/check out mode

When an AppXtender application or an AppXtender Document Manager machine is in check
in/check out mode, use of revision control with AppXtender documents is mandatory. Users

124
 Glossary

must check out a document to modify it. If they do not check the document out, it is opened
in read-only mode and it cannot be modified.

COLD
COLD (computer output to laser disk) data is report data generated for existing
applications. COLD data can be added to AppXtender as documents through the use of
ApplicationXtender Reports Management (AppXtender Reports Mgmt).

collection
A collection is a full-text database.

data source
A data source is the means by which AppXtender accesses data from a database. When a
data source is defined, an OLE DB data provider is configured to access the database. All of
these characteristics in combination – where the data is stored, the format of the data stored,
and the data provider used to access the data – comprise the data source.

data source group

A data source group in ApplicationXtender Administrator (AppXtender Admin) associates a
list of data sources with everything that has been configured in AppXtender Admin, such
as ApplicationXtender Web Access (AppXtender Web) settings and connections to License
Server computers. This feature provides convenience in that the work of configuration does
not have to be repeated every time you create a data source.

database
A database is a collection of data tables of a particular database format (such as Oracle or
Microsoft SQL Server). AppXtender uses databases to store application information. When
an application is created, details such as the field definitions and security information are
stored in database tables. Once documents are added to an application, index information is
stored in a table, as are the pointers to the location of the documents.

document
A document is a page or group of pages stored in an application and identified by index
information. Each page of a document is comprised of a single object such as a scanned
image file or a word processing document. To create a new document, users add an object
to an application and attach index information to it. Subsequent objects can be added as
additional pages of the same document.

Document Level Security

Document Level Security (DLS) pinpoints user access within an AppXtender application.
With DLS, you can deny a group of users access to any classified or sensitive document(s),
without restricting access to other documents in the application. DLS can also be configured
to grant a group of users access to only a specific set of documents in an application.

ERM
ERM (enterprise report management) data is report data generated for existing applications.
ERM data can be added to AppXtender as documents through the use of ApplicationXtender
Reports Management (AppXtender Reports Mgmt).

125
Glossary

extended applications
Extended applications are AppXtender applications that can be called from within other
software applications, adding document storage and processing functions.

full-text
Users can index documents for full-text searching by submitting them to the AppXtender
Index Agent. With a full-text search, users can find documents even if they do not know any
of the index values. Users can also use full-text searching to refine an index value search.

global security profile

Global security profiles can be established to automatically assign a uniform set of access
privileges for a user or group of users every time a new application is created. When a
global profile exists for a user or group of users, the privileges assigned in that profile are
automatically assigned for every application created. If a user or group of users does not
have a global profile, an application-specific profile must be created for that user or group
before they can access an application.

grab bar
An AppXtender Document Manager docked view has a grab bar. A grab bar is similar to a
title bar except that it does not contain a title.

impersonation account
The AppXtender Index Agent impersonation account grants security privileges to
AppXtender Index Agent and is essential for the AppXtender Index Agent to operate
properly. AppXtender Index Agent uses the AppXtender Index Agent impersonation
account to access remote and server resources, including AppXtender document paths,
the License Server, the registry, and the image repository (in some cases, the DiskXtender
Document Server).

import specification
A specification is a set of rules that AppXtender follows when importing data from an
import file using the AppXtender Auto Index Import, Index Image Import, or Key Reference
Import wizard.

inaccessible security
Inaccessible security denies access to the users in the group for documents with index field
values matching the secured value list. (See also Document Level Security.)

index
An AppXtender index contains a group of fields where descriptive information pertaining
to documents can be stored. This group of field definitions is used by AppXtender when
storing index information within an application.

node
A node is an element of a tree structure such as in AppXtender Admin, AppGen, Document
Manager, or Reports Mgmt. A node can be expanded to reveal subnodes or can be collapsed.

 Glossary

OCR
Users can process bi-tonal images using optical character recognition (OCR). This process
converts an image of text into text. After a user processes an image using OCR, it can then be
submitted to the AppXtender Index Agent for full-text searching.

OLE DB
OLE DB is a programming interface for accessing data, and is a fundamental building block
for storing and retrieving data using Microsoft’s Data Access Components (MDAC). OLE DB
provides flexible data architecture that offers applications like AppXtender efficient access to
databases. Data is accessed through OLE DB data providers

page
The word “Page” typically implies a single entity. Since AppXtender supports multiple
object types, the term “page” is redefined within AppXtender to mean a single object. A very
long word processing file is considered a page to AppXtender. A page could also be, for
example, a single scanned image, a 30-minute video clip, or an audio recording. Each page of
a document has the same index record attached.

privileges
Privileges govern the ability of a user or group of users to access functions in AppXtender.

redaction
A redaction is a filled and opaque annotation shape that can be used to secure or hide
portions of image and text pages. Users can apply redaction to all available annotations.
When applied, the area of the page behind the redaction is not visible.

security
Security is the combination of authentication and authorization.

security mapping
When AppXtender Migration is used to migrate documents and security information,
the administrator has the option to map users and groups in the source database to users
and groups in the destination database. Similarly, when the ApplicationXtender Media
Distribution (AppXtender Distribution) Extraction Wizard is used to extract AppXtender
documents and security information before the creation of an AppXtender Distribution
media, the administrator has the option to map users and groups in the source database
to users and groups in the database on the media (or in the database where the media is
reintegrated).

security provider
Security providers implement authentication, which requires all users to enter a valid user
name and password to access most modules. AppXtender Admin offers two pre-packaged
security providers (CM and Windows) to ensure that each user is who he or she claims to be.
You can also create a directory service security provider, if necessary.

write paths
Write paths are used to instruct AppXtender where to store documents, annotations, OCR
output, and the ProIndex full-text database for a particular AppXtender application.
