Control Center	StreamServe Control Center is used to manage and administer StreamServe applications.
Design Center	The StreamServe configuration tool for your StreamServe Projects.
Dependencies	Fragments and images referenced from within an XDP file – the main XDP file.
Deploy a Project	When you deploy a Project, the export file is used to unpack and store the configuration files in the working directory of the StreamServer application.
Document	A Document (capital D) is a grouping of documents per customer number, delivery address, etc. The scope of the Document is specified using a Document trigger.
Event	An Event controls how to identify and extract fields from the input data, and how to structure and label the extracted fields.
Export a Project	When you export a Project, you generate a package file (*.export) that contains all the configuration files needed to run a Project. You export from Design Center.
LCA	LiveCycle Archive
Message	A Message manages conversion from input to output format. A Project normally contains several Messages, where each Message corresponds to a specific document type. For example, one Message for invoices, another for orders, etc. A Message contains Events and Processes.
PageIN	The Event tool that handles page formatted input data. For other Event tools, see the StreamServe Design Center documentation.
PageOUT	The Process tool that produces page oriented output data. For other Process tools, see the StreamServe Design Center documentation.
Platform	The Platform is where you configure the environment settings for a Project. For example, in the Platform you specify how to connect to and receive input from source applications, and how to connect to and deliver output to the output devices (printers, faxes, etc.).
Process	A Process controls which fields to retrieve, and how to structure the fields in the output delivered from the StreamServer.
Project	A StreamServe Project is a definition of how a specific EDP solution should collect, transform and deliver data.
Resource	A resource in is a file with an embedded source file. For example, to be able to use the image file logo.gif in the Project, this file must be embedded in a resource. All external files, except dependencies, that you refer to when you configure a Project must be converted to resources.
Resource set	A set of links to resource files.
Runtime	The Runtime configuration is where you connect Messages to the Platform. A Project normally contains several Runtime configurations, for example one Runtime configuration per Message.
StreamIN	The Event tool that handles field- or record-based input data.
StreamServer	The component that handles the collection and transformation of input data, and the delivery of output documents. The StreamServer can run several StreamServer applications, where each StreamServer application is dedicated to a specific StreamServe Project.
XDP	XML Data Package.
XFA	XML Forms Architecture
XFA processor	The application, developed by StreamServe, that enables the StreamServer runtime environment to generate output in various formats from XML Data files and ADEP Designer form templates.
XMLIN	The Event tool that handles XML formatted input data.
