13 Web View Export Java Classes

This chapter describes the Web View Export Java classes.

This chapter covers the following classes:

13.1 Annotation Class

Annotation is an abstract base class for the Annotation objects.

Namespace

com.oracle.outsidein.annotations

Accessors

  • Height (long) Height of area in coordinates or rows

    void setHeight(long)
    long getHeight()
    
  • Left (long) Leftmost coordinate or column

    void setLeft(long)
    long getLeft()
    
  • Opacity (float) Opacity of the annotation. Range 0.0 - 1.0; setting opacity to 0 makes the annotation invisible

    void setOpacity(float) throws Exception
    float getOpacity()
    
  • SectionIndex (long) 0-based page/sheet/image/slide index

    void setSectionIndex(long)
    long getSectionIndex()
    
  • Top (long) Top coordinate or row

    void setTop(long)
    long getTop()
    
  • Units (Annotation.UnitTypeValue) Type of units in which Height, Width, Left and Top are described in

    void setUnits(Annotation.UnitTypeValue)
    Annotation.UnitTypeValue getUnits()
    
  • UserId (long) User Data

    void setUserId(long)
    long getUserId()
    
  • Width (long) Width of area in coordinates or columns

    void setWidth(long)
    long getWidth()
    

Annotation.UnitTypeValue Enumeration

The UnitTypeValue is an enumeration of the various unit types that annotation positions can be described in.

  • PIXELS: Units specified in Pixels

  • TWIPS: Units specified in Twips (1/1440th of an inch)

  • CELLS: Units specified in cell positions

13.2 ArchiveNode Class

ArchiveNode provides information about an archive node. This is a read-only class where the technology fills in all the values.

Namespace

com.oracle.outsidein

Accessors

  • boolean isFolder() - A value of true indicates that the record is an archive node.

  • int getFileSize() - File size of the archive node

  • java.util.Date getTime() - Time the archive node was created

  • int getNodeNum() - Serial number of the archive node in the archive

  • String getNodeName() - The name of the archive node

13.3 Callback Class

Callback messages are notifications that come from Outside In during the export process, providing information and sometimes the opportunity to customize the generated output.

Namespace

com.oracle.outsidein

To access callback messages, your code must create an object that inherits from Callback and pass it through the API's setCallbackHandler method. Your object can implement methods that override the default behavior for whichever methods your application is interested in.

Callback has two methods that you can override: createNewFile and newFileInfo.

13.3.1 createNewFile

CreateNewFileResponse createNewFile( FileFormat parentOutputId,  FileFormat outputId,
   AssociationValue association, String path)  throws IOException 

This callback is made any time a new output file needs to be generated. This gives the developer the chance to affect where the new output file is created, how it is named, and the URL (if any) used to reference the file.

Parameters

  • parentOutputId: File format identifier of the parent file

  • outputId: File format identifier of the file created

  • association: An AssociationValue that describes relationship between the primary output file and the new file.

  • path: Full path of the file to be created

Return Value

To take action in response to this notification, return a CreateNewFileResponse object with the new file information. If you wish to accept the defaults for the path and URL, you may return null.

CreateNewFileResponse Class

This is a class to define a new output file location in response to a CreateNewFile callback. If you do not wish to change the path to the new output file, you may use the path as received. If you do not wish to specify the URL for the new file, you many specify it as null.

Constructor

CreateNewFileResponse(File file, String url)
 
  • file: File object containing the full path to new file

  • url: A new URL that references the newly created file. This parameter can be null.

CreateNewFileResponse(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect, String url) throws IOException
  • redirect: Object that will be written to as the destination of the transform

  • url: A new URL that references the newly created file.This parameter can be null.

AssociationValue Enumeration

This enumeration defines, for a new file created by an export process, the different possible associations between the new file and the primary output file. Its value may be one of the following:

  • ROOT - indicates the primary output file

  • CHILD - a new file linked (directly or indirectly) from the primary output file

  • SIBLING - indicates new files not linked from the primary output file

  • COPY - the file was copied as a part of a template macro operation.

  • REQUIREDNAME - not used

Note that some of these relationships will not be possible in all Outside In Export SDKs.

13.3.2 newFileInfo

void newFileInfo( FileFormat parentOutputId, FileFormat outputId,
    AssociationValue association, String path, String url) throws IOException

This informational callback is made just after each new file has been created.

Parameters

  • parentOutputId: File format identifier of the parent file

  • outputId: File format identifier of the file created

  • association: An AssociationValue that describes relationship between the primary output file and the new file.

  • path: Full path of the file created

  • url: URL that references the newly created file

Example

Here is a basic callback handler that notifies an application that it has received newFileInfo notifications.

 public static class CallbackHandler extends Callback
 {
   myApplication m_theApp;
 
   public CallbackHandler( myApplication app )
   {
     m_theApp = app;
   }
 
@Override public void newFileInfo(FileFormat parentOutputId,
       FileFormat outputId, AssociationValue association,
       String path, String url) throws IOException
   {
     if( association == AssociationValue.ROOT )
       m_theApp.primaryOutputIsReady(true);
        
     m_theApp.newOutputFile(path);
   }
 }

13.3.3 openFile

OpenFileResponse openFile(FileTypeFalue fileType, String fileName) throws IOException 

This callback is made any time a new file needs to be opened.

Parameters

  • fileType: Type of file being requested to be opened

  • fileName: Name of the file to be opened

Return Value

To take action in response to this method, return an OpenFileResponse object.

FileTypeValue Enumeration

This enumeration defines the type of file being requested to be opened. Its value may be one of the following:

  • INPUT: File to be opened (path unknown)

  • TEMPLATE: Template file to be opened

  • PATH: Full file name of the file to be opened

  • OTHER: Not used

13.3.3.1 OpenFileResponse Class

Constructors

OpenFileResponse(File file)
  • file: File object with full path to the new file

OpenFileResponse(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect)
  • redirect: A redirected I/O object to which the file data will be written

13.3.4 createTempFile

CreateTempFileResponse createTempFile() throws IOException 

This callback is made any time a new temporary file needs to be generated. This gives the developer the chance to handle the reading and writing of the temporary file.

Return Value

To take action in response to this notification, return a CreateTempFileResponse object with the temporary file information.

13.3.4.1 CreateTempFileResponseClass

This is a class to define a new redirected I/O object in response to a createTempFile() callback.

Constructors

CreateTempFileResponse(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect)
  • redirect: A redirected I/O object to which the file data will be written and read from

13.4 ColorInfo Class

ColorInfo is a class to define a color or to use a default color in appropriate cases.

Namespace

com.oracle.outsidein

Constructors

ColorInfo()

13.5 Exporter Interface

This section describes the properties and methods of Exporter.

All of Outside In's Exporter functionality can be accessed through the Exporter Interface. The object returned by OutsideIn class is an implementation of this interface. This class derives from the Document Interface, which in turn is derived from the OptionsCache Interface.

Namespace

com.oracle.outsidein

Methods

  • getExportStatus

    ExportStatus getExportStatus()
    

    This function is used to determine if there were conversion problems during an export. The ExportStatus object returned may have information about sub-document failures, areas of a conversion that may not have high fidelity with the original document. When applicable the number of pages in the output is also provided.

  • newSubDocumentExporter

    Exporter newSubDocumentExporter(
          int SubDocId,
          SubDocumentIdentifierTypeValue idType
    ) throws OutsideInException
    

    Create a new Exporter for a subdocument.

    SubDocId: Identifier of the subdocument

    idType: Type of subdocument

    SubDocumentIdentifierTypeValue: This is an enumeration for the type of subdocument being opened.

    • XMLEXPORTLOCATOR: Subdocument to be opened is based on output of XML Export (SubdocId is the value of the object_id attribute of a locator element.)

    • ATTACHMENTLOCATOR: Subdocument to be opened is based on the locator value provided by the one of the Export SDKs.

    • EMAILATTACHMENTINDEX: Subdocument to be opened is based on the index of the attachment from an email message. (SubdocId is the zero-based index of the attachment from an email message file. The first attachment presented by OutsideIn has the index value 0, the second has the index value 1, etc.)

    Returns: A new Exporter object for the subdocument

  • newSubObjectExporter

    Exporter newSubObjectExporter(
          SubObjectTypeValue objType,
          int data1,
          int data2,
          int data3,
          int data4
    ) throws OutsideInException
    

    Create a new Exporter for a subobject.

    objType: Type of subobject

    data1: Data identifying the subobject from SearchML

    data2: Data identifying the subobject from SearchML

    data3: Data identifying the subobject from SearchML

          int dwRecordNum
    ) throws OutsideInException
    

    Create a new Exporter for an archive node. You may get the number of nodes in an archive using getArchiveNodeCount. The nodes are numbered from 0 to getArchiveNodeCount -1.

    dwRecordNum: The number of the record to retrieve information about. The first node is node 0 and the total number of nodes may be obtained from getArchiveNodeCount.

    Returns: A new Exporter object for the archive node

  • newArchiveNodeExporter with Search Export Data

    Exporter newArchiveNodeExporter(
          int flags,
          int params1,
          int params2
    ) throws OutsideInException
    

    Create a new Exporter for an archive node. To use this function, you must first process the archive with Search Export and save the Node data for later use in this function.

    Flags: Special flags value from Search Export

    Params1: Data1 from Search Export

    Params2: Data2 from Search Export

    Returns: A new Exporter object for the archive node

  • export

    void export() throws OutsideInException
    

    Perform the conversion and close the export process keeping the source document open.

    void export(boolean bLeaveSourceOpen) throws OutsideInException
    

    Perform the conversion and keep the source document open or close it based on the value of bLeaveSourceOpen.

    bLeaveSourceOpen: If set to true, keeps the source document open for next export process.

    Note:

    Before Release 8.5.3, calling Export() with no parameters, would leave the source document open. The default behavior starting with Release 8.5.3 is to close the document after exporting the file. If you would like to keep the file open for other conversions, use this method with "bLeaveSourceOpen" set to true.

    setDestinationFile

    OptionsCache setDestinationFile(
          String filename
    ) throws OutsideInException
    

    Set the location of the destination file

    filename: Full path to the destination file

    Returns: The updated options object

  • setExportTimeout

    OptionsCache setExportTimeout(int millisecondsTimeout)
     
    

    This method sets the time that the export process should wait for a response from the Outside In export engine to complete the export of a document, setting an upper limit on the time that will elapse during a call to export(). If the specified length of time is reached before the export has completed, the export operation will be terminated and an OutsideInException will be thrown. If this option is not set, the default timeout is 5 minutes.

  • newLocalExporter

    static Exporter newLocalExporter(Exporter source)
    

    This method creates and returns an instance of an Exporter object based on the source Exporter. All the options of source are copied to the new Exporter. The source and destination file information will not be copied.

  • OptionsCache setSourceFile(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect, String filename) throws OutsideInException

    Sets an object that implements SeekableByteChannel6 to be used as the source document and provides information about the filename.

    redirect: Object implementing SeekableByteChannel6 to be used to read the source data containing the input file

    filename: A fully qualified path or file name that may be used to derive the extension of the file or name of a secondary file that is dependent on the name/path of the source file

  • OptionsCache addSourceFile(File file) throws OutsideInException

    Sets the next source document file to be exported in sequence. This allows multiple documents to be exported to the same output destination.

    file: Full path to source file

  • OptionsCache addSourceFile(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect)

    Set a redirected channel as the next source document to be exported to the original destination file. This method has the same limitations as the similar setSourceFile(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect) method.

  • OptionsCache addSourceFile(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect, String Filename)

    Set a redirected channel as the next source document to be exported to the original destination file. The file name provided is used as in the method setSourceFile(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect, String Filename)

  • OptionsCache setSourceFormat(FileFormat fileId)

    Sets the source format to process the input file as, ignoring the algorithmic detection of the file type.

    fileId: the format to treat the input document as.

    Sets the location of the destination file.

    file: Full path to the destination file

  • OptionsCache setDestinationFile(SeekableByteChannel6 redirect) throws OutsideInException

    Sets an object that implements SeekableByteChannel6 to be used as the destination document. An Exporter.export() operation will write the output data to the provided SeekableByteChannel6 object.

    redirect: Object implementing SeekableByteChannel6 to be used as the destination document written during an Exporter.export() operation

  • OptionsCache setDestinationFormat(FileFormat fileId)

    Sets the destination file format to which the file should be converted.

    Sets the destination file format to which the file will be converted.

  • OptionsCache setCallbackHandler(Callback callback)

    Sets the object to use to handle callbacks.

    callback: the callback handling object.

  • OptionsCache setPasswordsList(List<String> Passwords)

    Provides a list of strings to use as passwords for encrypted documents. The technology will cycle through this list until a successful password is found or the list is exhausted.

    Passwords: List of strings to be used as passwords.

  • OptionsCache setLotusNotesId(String NotesIdFile)

    Sets the Lotus Notes ID file location.

    NotesIdFile: Full path to the Notes ID file.

13.5.4.1 BiDiReorderMethod

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_REORDERMETHOD

This option controls how the technology reorders bidirectional text.

Data Type

BiDiReorderMethodValue

BiDiReorderMethodValue Enumeration

  • UNICODEOFF: This disables any processing for bidirectional characters. This option is the default.

  • UNICODELTOR: Characters displayed using the Unicode bidirectional algorithm assuming a base left-to-right order. Use this option to enable bidirectional UNICODERTOL.

  • RIGHTTOLEFT: Characters displayed using the Unicode bidirectional algorithm assuming a base right-to-left order. Use this option to force starting bidirectional rendering in the right-to-left order.

Default

BiDiReorderMethodValue.UNICODEOFF

13.5.4.2 DefaultInputCharacterSet

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_DEFAULTINPUTCHARSET

This option is used in cases where Outside In cannot determine the character set used to encode the text of an input file. When all other means of determining the file's character set are exhausted, Outside In will assume that an input document is encoded in the character set specified by this option. This is most often used when reading plain-text files, but may also be used when reading HTML or PDF files.

13.5.4.3 DefaultPageMargins

This option specifies the top, left, bottom and right margins in twips from the edges of the page. For instance, setting all the values to 1440 creates a 1-inch margin on all sides. Page margins will only be applied when formatting word processing, database and spreadsheet files.

Please note all margins are applied before scaling with the PageFitMode option. This option is overridden when the UseDocumentPageSettings option is set to true and print margins are specified in the input document. This option does not affect the output of bitmap, presentation, vector or archive files.

Data Type

Margins

Data

A Margins object with the margins on the 4 sides defined.

Default

1 inch for all margins

13.5.4.4 DefaultPageSize

This option allows the developer to specify the size of each page in the generated output file. The size may be specified in inches, points, centimeters or picas. This option is only valid when UseDocumentPageSettings is set to false. 1 inch = 6 picas = 72 points = ~ 2.54 cm.

Data Type

PageInfo

Data

A PageInfo object with the page size information.

Default

8.5 inches by 11 inches

13.5.4.5 DefaultRenderFont

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_DEFAULTPRINTFONT

This option sets the font to use when the font specified by the filter is not available on the system.

Data Type

FontInfo

Data

The default font to be used

Default

None

13.5.4.6 DocumentMemoryMode

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_DOCUMENTMEMORYMODE

This option determines the maximum amount of memory that the internal storage may use to store the document's data, from 4 MB to 1 GB. The more memory the internal storage has available to it, the less often it needs to re-read data from the document.

Data

  • SMALLEST: 1 - 4MB

  • SMALL: 2 - 16MB

  • MEDIUM: 3 - 64MB

  • LARGE: 4 - 256MB

  • LARGEST: 5 - 1 GB

Default

DocumentMemoryModeValue.LARGE

13.5.4.7 EmailAttachmentHandling

This option determines whether email attachments are converted or extracted.

Data Type

EmailAttachmentHandlingValue

EmailAttachmentHandlingValue Enumeration

EmailAttachmentHandlingValue can be one of the following enumerations:

  • NONE: Attachments will not be converted or extracted.

  • EXPORT: The attachments to this email will be converted.

  • EXPORTRECURSIVE: The attachments to this email will be converted; if any are emails, they will also have their attachments converted, and so on.

  • EXTRACT: Attachments will be extracted in their native form, stored alongside the Web View output files.

Default

EmailAttachmentHandlingValue.NONE

13.5.4.8 EnableAlphaBlending

This option allows the user to enable alpha-channel blending (transparency) in rendering vector images. This is primarily useful to improve fidelity when rendering with a slower graphics engine, such as X-Windows over a network when performance is not an issue.

Data

Boolean

Default

False

13.5.4.9 ExternalStylesheets

String option for specifying the url of a user supplied stylesheet to be included in the output html file. Values specified through this option will appear in output HTML files as linked stylesheets.

Example

    <script src="oit.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="/some/path/myStylesheet.css"/>

Data Type

List<String>

Default

None

13.5.4.10 FallbackFormat

This option controls how files are handled when their specific application type cannot be determined. This normally affects all plain-text files, because plain-text files are generally identified by process of elimination, for example, when a file isn't identified as having been created by a known application, it is treated as a plain-text file. It is recommended that None be set to prevent the conversion from exporting unidentified binary files as though they were text, which could generate many pages of "garbage" output.

Data Type

FallbackFormatValue

FallbackFormatValue Enumeration

FallbackFormatValue can be one of the following enumerations:

  • TEXT: Unidentified file types will be treated as text files.

  • NONE: Outside In will not attempt to process files whose type cannot be identified.

Default

FallbackFormatValue.TEXT

13.5.4.11 FontAliasList

This option enables the capability to specify which font on the system should be used when a specific font referenced in the original file is not available. A different alias can be set for each font desired to be mapped.

Data Type

FontAliases

Data

A FontAliases object with a list of font matchings

Default

Please refer to the section "SCCOPT_PRINTFONTALIAS" in the C-API for the default font alias list.

13.5.4.12 FontBaseURL

This option allows the developer to specify the base URL used in the Web View Export output when referencing a non-exported font as a downloadable font. (Exported fonts will be placed in the exported output location.)

Data Type

String

Default

None

13.5.4.13 FontDirectories

This option allows the developer to specify one or more font directories where fonts are located for use by Web View Export. If multiple font directories are specified, they should be delimited by a colon on Linux and UNIX systems and a semi-colon on Windows systems. Please note that Web View Export supports single TrueType fonts (*.ttf, *.TTF) and TrueType collections (*.ttc, *.TTC), not Windows bitmap fonts (*.fon, *.FON), or any other type of font. Also, Web View Export does not require case-sensitive font filenames on UNIX systems.

Data Type

List<File>

Default

None

13.5.4.14 FontFilter

This option allows the developer to specify a list of fonts to be included or excluded during the export process.

Data Type

FontList

Data

A FontFilter object describing the inclusion or exclusion list.

Default

None

13.5.4.15 FontReferenceMethod

This option controls the way embedded fonts are presented (or not) in the HTML5 output.

Data Type

FontReferenceMethodValue

FontReferenceMethodValue Enumeration

  • REFERENCEBYNAME: The font is referenced in the output file by name only

  • REFERENCEEXPORTED: The font is subsetted, exported during document conversion, and referenced in the output by file name

  • REFERENCEBYBASEURL: The full font is referenced in the output using the font file name and the base URL supplied by the FontBaseURL option.

Default

FontReferenceMethodValue.REFERENCEBYNAME

13.5.4.16 GraphicHeightLimit

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_GRAPHIC_HEIGHTLIMIT

Note that this option differs from the behavior of setting the height of graphics in that it sets an upper limit on the image height. Images larger than this limit will be reduced to the limit value. However, images smaller than this height will not be enlarged when using this option. Setting the height using GraphicHeight causes all output images to be reduced or enlarged to be of the specified height.

A value of zero is equivalent to no limit, which causes this option to be ignored.

Data Type

long

Default

0

13.5.4.17 GraphicOutputDPI

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_GRAPHIC_OUTPUTDPI

This option allows the user to specify the output graphics device's resolution in DPI and only applies to images whose size is specified in physical units (in/cm). For example, consider a 1" square, 100 DPI graphic that is to be rendered on a 50 DPI device (GraphicOutputDPI is set to 50). In this case, the size of the resulting TIFF, BMP, JPEG, GIF, or PNG will be 50 x 50 pixels.

In addition, setting this option to 0(Maintain Source Image DPI), can be used to suppress any dimensional changes to an image. In other words, a 1" square, 100 DPI graphic will be converted to an image that is 100 x 100 pixels in size. This value indicates that the DPI of the output device is not important. It extracts the maximum resolution from the input image with the smallest exported image size.

Setting this option to 0 may result in the creation of extremely large images. Be aware that there may be limitations in the system running this technology that could result in undesirably large bandwidth consumption or an error message. Additionally, an out of memory error message will be generated if system memory is insufficient to handle a particularly large image.

Also note that setting this option to 0 will force the technology to use the DPI settings already present in raster images, but will use the current screen resolution as the DPI setting for any other type of input file.

For some output graphic types, there may be a discrepancy between the value set by this option and the DPI value reported by some graphics applications. The discrepancy occurs when the output format uses metric units (DPM, or dots per meter) instead of English units (DPI, or dots per inch). Depending on how the graphics application performs rounding on meters to inches conversions, the DPI value reported may be 1 unit more than expected. An example of a format which may exhibit this problem is PNG. The maximum value that can be set is 2400 DPI.

Data Type

long

Default

96

13.5.4.18 GraphicSizeLimit

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_GRAPHIC_SIZELIMIT

This option is used to set the maximum size of the exported graphic in pixels. It may be used to prevent inordinately large graphics from being converted to equally cumbersome output files, thus preventing bandwidth waste.

This setting takes precedence over all other options and settings that affect the size of a converted graphic.

When creating a multi-page TIFF file, this limit is applied on a per page basis. It is not a pixel limit on the entire output file.

Data Type

long

Default

0

13.5.4.19 GraphicWidthLimit

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_GRAPHIC_WIDTHLIMIT

This option allows a hard limit to be set for how wide in pixels an exported graphic may be. Any images wider than this limit will be resized to match the limit. It should be noted that regardless whether the GraphicHeightLimit option is set or not, any resized images will preserve their original aspect ratio.

Note that this option differs from the behavior of setting the width of graphics by using GraphicWidth in that it sets an upper limit on the image width. Images larger than this limit will be reduced to the limit value. However, images smaller than this width will not be enlarged when using this option. Setting the width using GraphicWidth causes all output images to be reduced or enlarged to be of the specified width.

Data Type

long

Default

0

13.5.4.20 IECondCommentMode

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_HTML_COND_COMMENT_MODE

Some HTML input files may include "conditional comments", which are HTML comments that mark areas of HTML to be interpreted in specific versions of Internet Explorer, while being ignored by other browsers. This option allows you to control how the content contained within conditional comments will be interpreted by Outside In's HTML parsing code.

Data Type

IECondCommentFlagValues

IECondCommentFlagValues Enumeration

IECondCommentFlagValues can be one or more of the following enumerations ORed together:

  • NONE: Don't output any conditional comment

  • IE5: Include the IE5 comments

  • IE6: Include the IE6 comments

  • IE7: Include the IE7 comments

  • IE8: Include the IE8 comments

  • IE9: Include the IE9 comments

  • ALL: Include all conditional comments

Default

IECondCommentFlagValues.NONE

13.5.4.21 IgnorePassword

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_IGNORE_PASSWORD

This option can disable the password verification of files where the contents can be processed without validation of the password. If this option is not set, the filter will return an error.

Currently only the PST and MDB Filters support this option.

Data Type

boolean

Default

false

13.5.4.22 ISODateTimes

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_FORMATFLAGS

When this flag is set, all Date and Time values are converted to the ISO 8601 standard. This conversion can only be performed using dates that are stored as numeric data within the original file.

Data Type

boolean

Default

false

13.5.4.23 LotusNotesDirectory

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_LOTUSNOTESDIRECTORY

This option allows the developer to specify the location of a Lotus Notes or Domino installation for use by the NSF filter. A valid Lotus installation directory must contain the file nnotes.dll.

Either Lotus Notes version 8 or Lotus Domino version 8 must be installed on the same machine as OIT. A 32-bit version of the Lotus software must be used if you are using a 32-bit version of OIT. A 64-bit version of the Lotus software must be used if you are using a 64-bit version of OIT.

Data Type

String

Default

None

13.5.4.24 MarginText

This option lets you specify a text string for margin text.

Data Type

MarginText

Default

None

13.5.4.25 MarginTextFont

This option lets you set the font and font size for margin text.

Data Type

FontInfo

Default

Arial, 9 pt.

13.5.4.26 OutputRawtext

An option controlling whether raw text output is generated on the server side. This option must be enabled in order to enable in-browser searching via the Outside In API. This does not affect the search capabilities of the browser itself. Raw text generation is enabled by default.

Data Type

boolean

Default

true

13.5.4.27 PageRange

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_WHATTOPRINT

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_PRINTSTARTPAGE

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_PRINTENDPAGE

This option indicates whether the whole file or a selected range of pages should be rendered. When selecting a range, the start and ending pages are specified.

Data Type

PageRange

Data

The page range to be exported.

Default

All pages are printed

13.5.4.28 PDFInputMaxEmbeddedObjects

This option allows the user to limit the number of embedded objects that are produced in a PDF file.

Data Type

long

Data

The maximum number of embedded objects to produce in PDF output. Setting this to 0 would produce an all embedded objects in the input document.

Default

0 – produce all objects.

13.5.4.29 PDFInputMaxVectorPaths

This option allows the user to limit the number of vector paths that are produced in a PDF file.

Data Type

long

Data

The maximum number of paths to produce in PDF output. Setting this to 0 would produce an all vector objects in the input document.

Default

0 – produce all vector objects.

13.5.4.30 PDFReorderBiDi

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_PDF_FILTER_REORDER_BIDI

This option controls whether or not the PDF filter will attempt to reorder bidirectional text runs so that the output is in standard logical order as used by the Unicode 2.0 and later specification. This additional processing will result in slower filter performance according to the amount of bidirectional data in the file.

Data Type

PDFReorderBiDiValue

PDFReorderBiDiValue Enumeration

This enumeration defines the type of Bidirection text reordering the PDF filter should perform.

  • STANDARDBIDI: Do not attempt to reorder bidirectional text runs.

  • REORDEREDBIDI: Attempt to reorder bidirectional text runs.

Default

PDFReorderBiDiValue.STANDARDBIDI

13.5.4.31 PDFWordSpacingFactor

This option controls the spacing threshold in PDF input documents. Most PDF documents do not have an explicit character denoting a word break. The PDF filter calculates the distance between two characters to determine if they are part of the same word or if there should be a word break inserted. The space between characters is compared to the length of the space character in the current font multiplied by this fraction. If the space between characters is larger, then a word break character is inserted into the text stream. Otherwise, the characters are considered to be part of the same word and no word break is inserted.

Data Type

float

Data

A value representing the percentage of the space character used to trigger a word break. Valid values are positive values less than 2.

Default

0.85

13.5.4.32 PerformExtendedFI

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_FIFLAGS

This option affects how an input file's internal format (application type) is identified when the file is first opened by the Outside In technology. When the extended test flag is in effect, and an input file is identified as being either 7-bit ASCII, EBCDIC, or Unicode, the file's contents will be interpreted as such by the export process.

The extended test is optional because it requires extra processing and cannot guarantee complete accuracy (which would require the inspection of every single byte in a file to eliminate false positives.)

Data Type

boolean

Data

One of the following values:

  • false: When this is set, standard file identification behavior occurs.

  • true: If set, the File Identification code will run an extended test on all files that are not identified.

Default

  • true

13.5.4.33 PostLibraryScripts

List of strings specifying the relative URL of the customer's initialization script. Scripts specified via this option will load after the Outside In libraries, and may access the Outside In Javascript API. The scripts will be referenced in the same order as the list used to set this option.

Example:

    <script src="oit.js">
    <script src="/config/oitinit.js">

Data Type

List<String>

Default

None

13.5.4.34 PreLibraryScripts

List of strings specifying the URL of a script file to be referenced via a <script> tag in the output file. Scripts specified via this option will load before the Outside In libraries. The scripts will be referenced in the same order as the list used to set this option.

Example:

    <script src="/jQuery/jQuery-min.js">
    <script src="/shims/customstuff.js">
    <script src="oit.js">

Data Type

List<String>

Default

None

13.5.4.35 RedactionColor

This option provides the ability to specify the color used for a redaction rectangle (black or white) as well as the color used (black or white) for the redaction code. When the colors match, the redaction code is effectively invisible. Settings should default to Black redactions with White codes if not explicitly set. The values may be set on each redaction individually, both in the UI and in the rendered output.

Value

ColorInfo

Data

Any valid CSS color

13.5.4.36 RedactionLabelFont

This option sets the name and size of font to use for redaction labels. The font size may be reduced to allow text to fit within a redaction rectangle.

Data Type

FontInfo

Default

Default display font, 9 pt.

13.5.4.37 RedactionLabelsVisible

This option allows you to display redaction labels in your output.

Data Type

boolean

Default

False (no labels)

13.5.4.38 RedactionsEnabled

This option tells the export to format the output to be redaction-capable. In practical terms what this means is that all embeddings will be rasterized (routed through sccimg) so that a rectangle in an embedding is consistent across all output formats.

Data Type

boolean

Default

False

13.5.4.39 RenderEmbeddedFonts

This option allows you to disable the use of embedded fonts in PDF input files. If the option is set to true, the embedded fonts in the PDF input are used to render text; if the option is set to false, the embedded fonts are not used and the fallback is to use fonts available to Outside In to render text.

Data Type

boolean

Default

true

13.5.4.40 ShowArchiveFullPath

This option causes the full path of a node to be returned in "GetArchiveNodeInfo" and "GetObjectInfo".

Data Type

boolean

Default

false

13.5.4.41 StrokeOutText

This option is used to stroke out (display as graphical primitives) text in an AutoCAD file. Setting this option to false would improve performance, but the visual fidelity may be compromised.

  • If the export for the conversion is text only, text is never stroked out.

  • If the export is not text only, and the drawing is perspective, text will always be stroked out (regardless of this option). This is due to the fact that in non-text only situations visual fidelity is of importance, and handling of textual objects in perspective drawings is more accurate with stroked out text. If the conversion is non-text only and the drawing is not perspective, this option determines if text should be stroked.

Note that when this option is true, some special characters appear as asterisks or question marks due to limited support of characters for stroking out text.

Data Type

boolean

Default

true

13.5.4.42 TempDirectory

From time to time, the technology needs to create one or more temporary files. This option sets the directory to be used for those files.

It is recommended that this option be set as part of a system to clean up temporary files left behind in the event of abnormal program termination. By using this option with code to delete files older than a predefined time limit, the OEM can help to ensure that the number of temporary files does not grow without limit.

If a developer would like to manage temporary files using redirected IO to completely take over responsibility for the low level IO calls of the temp file , they can set the option value to null and every time a new temporary file needs to be created, a callback method "createTempFile" shall be called.

Note:

It is mandatory to support this callback if the option is set to null.

Data Type

String

Default

The system default directory for temporary files. On Windows systems, it is the value of environment variable %TMP%. On UNIX systems, this is the value of environment variable $TMP.

 

13.5.4.43 TimeZoneOffset

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_TIMEZONE

This option allows the user to define an offset to GMT that will be applied during date formatting, allowing date values to be displayed in a selectable time zone. This option affects the formatting of numbers that have been defined as date values. This option will not affect dates that are stored as text.

Note:

This option does not apply for spreadsheet files. Daylight savings is not supported. The sent time in msg files when viewed in Outlook can be an hour different from the time sent when an image of the msg file is created.

Data Type

long

Default

  • 0: GMT time

13.5.4.44 UnmappableCharacter

This option selects the character used when a character cannot be found in the output character set. This option takes the Unicode value for the replacement character. It is left to the user to make sure that the selected replacement character is available in the output character set.

Data Type

int

Default

42

13.5.4.45 URLPathOutput

String option for specifying the base URL for output files generated during the export process. The value of this option is used as a prefix for references to those resources in the primary output file. If the output base URL is "/exports/", an image tag in an exported document would look like this:

     <img src="/exports/doc01.doc.jpg" />

and URLs to the exported files within content.js would be of this form:

 {id:"page.1",name:"Page 1",type:"page",oid:"overlay.1",w:"816px",h:"1056px",src:"/exports/output.3.html"}

By default, the output file base URL is empty, and all output will be specified without path information.

Data Type

String

Default

None

13.5.4.46 URLPathResources

String option for specifying the base URL for Web View Export scripts, css files and other resources that do not vary with the converted file. The value of this option is used as a prefix for references to those resources in the primary output file. For example, if the resources' base URL is "/oit/", the script reference in the output file would look like this:

 <script src="/oit/oit.js"></script>

By default, this value is empty, meaning all resources must be present in the same directory as the generated output.

Data Type

String

Default

None

13.5.4.47 UseDocumentPageSettings

OIT Option ID: SCCOPT_USEDOCPAGESETTINGS

This option is used to select the document's page layout information when rendering.

If TRUE the document's native (or author selected) page margins, paper size, page scaling and page orientation are used when available from the filter.

The values of the DefaultPrintMargins, SSPrintGridlines, SSPrintHeadings, SSPrintDirection, and SSPrintFitToPage options are overridden if this option is set to TRUE and the properties associated with those options are specified in the input document. Additionally, print area and page breaks in spreadsheet documents are ignored unless this option is set to true.

If false, the page margins, size, orientation and scaling are set to specific values rather than those in the native document. The page size is forced to 8 1/2" x 11" in portrait orientation, but this may be changed by setting the GraphicHeight and/or GraphicWidth options. The margins are forced 1" all around, but may be changed by setting the defaultMargins option. The scaling for the document will be set to 100%, although this may be changed by setting any of the various scaling options.

It should be noted that this option also affects page orientation for both input spreadsheets and word processing documents.

Data Type

boolean

Default

true

13.5.4.48 VectorObjectLimit

This value sets a limit on the number of objects that will be generated in an SVG drawing so that browser capabilities will not be exceeded. A value of 0 indicates no limit.

Web View Export renders vector-based graphics from source documents as SVG drawings. SVG is part of the HTML5 specification and provides native browser-based support for vector graphics, and usually results in superior visual fidelity. However, while HTML5 browsers generally support SVG vector graphics very well, this native support can be pushed past its limits with highly complex source documents. To avoid overtaxing a browser, this option allows a limit to be placed on the complexity of SVG graphics created from such source documents. Once the specified number of objects has been added to an SVG drawing, no further graphic objects will be added.

This limit is reset for each page of output; hitting the limit on the first page of the document doesn't prevent SVG objects from being created for subsequent pages of the Web View Export output.

An application can detect if an input document triggered this limit by using the EXExportStatus API function.

Data Type

long

Default

5000

13.5.4.49 WebFontPermissions

This option controls the use of "embedded" fonts (see FontReferenceMethod) in the Web View Export output; specifically, whether or not a downloadable (web font) version of the font should be made available to Web View Export output, based on the licensing restrictions indicated within the font itself.

Data Type

WebFontPermissionValues

WebFontPermissionValues Enumeration

WebFontPermissionValues can be one or more of the following enumerations ORed together:

  • DEFAULTPERMISSIONS

  • REQUIREINSTALLABLE

  • REQUIREPREVIEWPRINT

  • REQUIREEDITABLE

Default

WebFontPermissionValues.DEFAULTPERMISSIONS

13.5.4.50 WebViewLibraryName

String option specifying the file name of the Web View Javascript library, which will be written into a <script> tag in the generated HTML files for a Web View. If this option is not set, the value "oit.js" will be used. This option allows the Web View Javascript library to be renamed for versioning or other purposes. This option works in combination with the URLPathResources option.

Data Type

String

Default

oit.js

13.5.4.51 WebViewOutputStructure

This option controls the structure of the output files created by Web View Export.

Data Type

WebViewStructureValue

WebViewStructureValue Enumeration

WebViewStructureValue can be one of the following enumerations:

  • FLAT: HTML content is exported in a single HTML file.

  • AJAXCHUNKED: HTML content is spread among multiple output pages.

  • AJAXSTREAMED: HTML content is spread among multiple output pages and the browser may begin viewing the document before the entire output has been produced.

  • PAGESTREAMING: HTML content is spread among multiple independent output files

Default

WebViewStructureValue.FLAT

13.5.4.52 WebViewStylesheetName

String option specifying the file name of the Web View stylesheet, which will be written into a <link> tag in the generated HTML files for a Web View. If this option is not set, the value "oit.css" will be used. This option allows the Web View stylesheet to be renamed for versioning or other purposes. This option works in combination with the URLPathResources option.

Data Type

String

Default

oit.css

13.6 ExportStatus Class

The ExportStatus class provides access to information about a conversion. This information may include information about sub-document failures, areas of a conversion that may not have high fidelity with the original document. When applicable the number of pages in the output is also provided.

Namespace
