Description
DSPublisher is an add-on module that enables publishing documents in Adobe PDF format to DocuShare, directly from a desktop application.

From any Windows application, using a File Print command, a user can publish a document to a selected destination in DocuShare, in printable PDF format. The user sends the document to a Docushare virtual printer, selecting a DocuShare collection and optionally specifying metadata to store with the document, such as a title, summary, description, keywords, author, or other field.

DSPublisher requires a module be installed on the user's PC workstation, with a separate module installed on the server for format conversion and upload to DocuShare. The client module creates a virtual DocuShare printer usable by all Windows NT/2000/XP applications. The file to be stored is compressed and transferred with print instructions to the second module, which receives the print file, decompresses it and processes it. The file is converted to PDF and imported into DocuShare following the user's print instructions.

Benefits
  • Use directly from any Windows application capable of printing
  • Acrobat Adobe license is not required on the user's workstation
  • User can select a destination and key words for later retrieval at the time of the publication
  • Conversion and publication are centralized
DSPublisher facilitates the publication and storage of documents in a widely usable format. It thus simplifies filing of documents from different applications that may not have a standard interchange format, or a standardized storage.
