Documaker Standard Edition Requirements
Your computer must have certain software and hardware components to run the programs that comprise the Documaker system. Depending on your software license, operating environment, and your processing needs, these requirements vary.
The following tables outline the minimum hardware used to test Documaker and are included for informational reasons only. You should run the system on a computer configured appropriately for the operating system you use and with the processing power to meet your needs.
For running Documaker Studio, Documaker Server, Docupresentment and WIP Edit plug-in, you must have Java 1.8 installed.
For more specific information on the GenArc program and the additional archive and retrieval capabilities available, refer to the Documaker Administration Guide.

- If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer version 11 on the machine where Documaker Studio is running, turn on Internet Explorer’s compatibility view.
- Microsoft Word 2013 and 2016 is required in order to:
- convert Microsoft Word (*.doc, *.docx) documents using Documaker Studio or command line utility RTF2FAPW
- create or modify Documaker documents using Oracle Documaker Add-In for Microsoft Word

- Convert Documaker documents (*.docx, *.docm) using Documaker Studio or RTF2FAPW.
- Microsoft.NET Programmability Support in MS Word.
- You need the following applications to run Documaker Add-In for Word:
| Item | Version |
|---|---|
| Microsoft.NET Framework | If you are using Office 2013 or Office 2016, you will need.Net 4.0,.Net 4.5.1 and VSTO2010 installed. |

- Microsoft VSTO (Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime).
This table outlines the minimum hardware used to test the system on single user for Windows.
* Additional memory improves system performance.
** Depends on the volume of data you must process
*** Additional memory may be required if printing complicated graphics or using a lot of fonts.
Note: Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 are supported.
On UNIX Systems
For all UNIX systems, you can use any printer that supports IBM AFP, PCL, PostScript level 2, or Xerox Metacode. For HP printers, you need at least 8mb of memory, more if you are printing complicated graphics or using a lot of fonts. The amount of hard disk space you need depends on the volume of data you process. Keep in mind too, that a compiler is only required if you plan to recompile the system, such as if you customize the source code or use a runtime library other than the one shown for your operating system.
Note: For any UNIX installation, first make sure you have the uudecode, uncompress, and awk utilities installed.
