Workflow - convert txt files

asked on June 22, 2016

Hi,

Is there a way in workflow to take .txt files being imported into Laserfiche and have them automatically converted into .tiff or .pdf files?  

 

Thank you,

 

Jennifer

I don't think that is possible. Please take a look this answer.

Jennifer, what is the end goal? Text files imported through the Laserfiche Client are converted to text pages, so they display in the document viewer and are fully searchable. What sort of functionality are you missing?

Figured out what to do.  I moved the txt pane to the image area and a tab was created at the bottom to be able to switch between views.  Just have to set that up for everyone and we should good to go.  Thank you all for your help.

HI Junaid,

 

I did try the above however I am missing the metadata when the file opens in note pad and not laserfiche.  Perhaps my answer below will explain a little more.  Thank you so much for your time.

Hi,

My end goal is that when my users open up a text file associated with a template they would see both the the file and the metadata side by side like their default view with an image file.  Now it's off to the right hand side and not easy to view with the metadata.  I realize that you can move the columns around but just wanted to make it simple for the user.  Hope that makes sense.
