Notes Regarding Authoring Applications

Consider the following with regards to InSight Rendering authoring application support:
  • If a source document is not compatible with the rendering server authoring tools, change the source document to make it compatible. You cannot use downgraded versions of the authoring tools on the servers.  
  • Before installing Microsoft Office, if you set the Regional Option to non-US/English for your operating system, bookmark extraction will not work properly when rendering a document. Any non-US/English Regional Option settings should be made after Microsoft Office has been installed.
  • InSight Rendering can render documents for many different authoring programs to PDF, license permitting. The authoring programs for which you want to render source documents must be installed on each repository in the  InSight Rendering domain. Using the service account that you set up when you installed InSight Rendering, install the authoring programs following the installation instructions provided by that vendor.
  • InSight Rendering can render documents accurately only if authoring programs run successfully and without prompts or dialogs, including registration dialogs. After you install InSight Rendering, start each authoring program to confirm that it runs this way.
