Document Conversion Service includes several sample profiles for common types of output files for your use. The default set of profiles are installed into the following location:
Default profile location: |
C:\ProgramData\PEERNET\Document Conversion Service\Profiles |
You can use the sample profiles above as a base to edit and create your own custom profiles. Custom profiles can be stored per user in the user's application data folder. Both the local and roaming data folders are searched when looking for user profiles. If a profile is found in a user location, that profile will be used. If no matching profiles are found in the user profile locations, the default profile location is searched.
User profile locations searched in this order: |
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Document Conversion Service\Profiles C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Document Conversion Service\Profiles |
When using the PEERNET.ConvertUtility.dll and the command line tools, the full path to a profile stored elsewhere on disk can also be passed instead of the base name of the profile.
See the section Conversion Settings for information on the contents and structure of the profile files, and the Name-Value Tables for Conversion Settings for the conversion setting strings to use to get various output formats.
The profiles included with the Document Conversion Service install are listed below.
See below for e-discovery specific profiles.
Profile Name |
Profile Description |
---|---|
Adobe PDF Multipage |
Creates Adobe PDF files. The PDF files created using this profile are, where possible, vector PDF files. Vector PDF files are also known as searchable PDF files. The other PDF profiles provided create raster, or non-searchable PDF files.
What this profile cannot do is create a vector PDF from an existing raster PDF (scanned PDF) or other image formats such as TIFF or JPEG. A vector PDF is only created if the source document contains text or vector graphics already. |
