Using default preview output connectors

Preview output connectors are used to display documents in web applications. The connectors must apply drivers that match the content types required by the calling applications. For example:

•	Ad Hoc Correspondence – image/tiff

•	Correspondence Reviewer – application/pdf

•	Composition Center – application/pdf

About default preview connectors

If certain prerequisites are fulfilled, you can use default preview connectors. The default preview connectors are automatically created and selected at preview service requests. They are not visible in Design Center.

The connectors are pre-configured with certain settings (for compression, resolution, etc.) and use output mode Job. You cannot modify these settings. To use other settings, you must configure the preview output connectors manually.

Prerequisites

•	All preview connectors in the Project are default preview connectors. It is not possible to combine default preview connectors with manually configured preview connectors.

•	The content types required by the calling applications are exclusively application/pdf and image/tiff.

Note:

If you use an XMLOUT or a StreamOUT Process, you can use default preview connectors regardless of content type.

•	The Message is service-enabled. In the configuration where the Message is service-enabled, the Use default preview connector option is selected.
