When it is necessary to convert a postscript output into Portable Document Format or JPG using Ghostscript, the Financial Reporting Print Server queries the Windows registry. If a specific entry is found, it uses the user provided Ghostscript parameters from the registry rather than the default parameters to generate the PDF (Portable Document Format) or JPG. A user only needs to modify the registry entry to obtain the desired output. This can include higher output resolution, the use of custom conversion devices, and changing the default paper size.
Existing Financial Reporting installations are not affected by this change. Users should be familiar with Ghostscript in general and particularly with parameters that are used by Ghostscript. This is an advanced feature that can cause Portable Document Format or JPG output to fail or become corrupted if not implemented correctly.
