What is PlanetPress Image?
PlanetPress Image is a mutli-threaded service that can generate image files in PDF, JPEG and TIFF format. As PlanetPress Workflow and PlanetPress Image are compliant AutoStore, DocAccel and KYOcapture, these formats can also be used.
These image files can be archived and, depending on whether you use a PlanetPress Image output task or a Digital Action action task, sent via email. Note you can use PlanetPress Search, another program included in PlanetPress Suite, to search through archived PDF files.
All raster image files, such as GIFs or JPEGs, generated by PlanetPress Image are portrait oriented.
PlanetPress Image can be installed on any computer on your network and process requests coming from tasks performed by PlanetPress Workflowon other workstations. You may choose to run it on every computer where PlanetPress Workflowis running, but you may also choose to run it on computers more or less dedicated to PlanetPress Image. Note that in the case of Digital Action output tasks, PlanetPress Workflowand the PlanetPress Image service must be running on the same computer.
The minimum time required to generate a PlanetPress Image document is approximately 10 times longer on Windows 2000 than on Windows XP/2003.
