Generate Pages for PDFs is Not Working

asked on November 26, 2014

Hello everyone,

Firstly, I am utilizing version 9.1.1.548 of Laserfiche.

I have the features set in Tools>Options>Generate Pages to "Extract images from PDFs". Also, in Tools>Options>New Documents under "When importing PDFs" "Generate Laserfiche Pages" is marked.

I have the Viewer set to open pdfs in the Document Viewer and do not have the option selected to show in the Electronic File Pane.

My issue is that whenever I get a PDF pulled into Laserfiche from Forms, I navigate to that document, open it and no pages have been generated. I must then manually go in to Tasks>Generate Pages for each document and then the images will show.

Any guidance on how to get this feature to work automatically? I really appreciate any help on this!

Thank you,

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

Those options you're referring to only apply to the Client and Web Access. Currently there isn't a way to generate pages automatically when a form is submitted and saved to the repository as a PDF or when a form includes PDFs as file uploads. There is already an enhancement request filed for this though.

For now, perhaps you can incorporate Quick Fields in this process and have a session where it processes the new PDFs and generates pages for them. Using Quick Fields Agent on a continuous schedule can help automate this process.
