About Server-Controlled Publishing

Publishing Design Files > Server-Controlled Publishing > About Server-Controlled Publishing

Manage the conversion of ECAD files to the Creo View format using one of the following types of visualization server:

• Windchill

• Graphics server

• Other customized server environment

The server-controlled publishing operation uses a worker script to convert the files in a background session of the ECAD tool. This chapter describes the steps for using the worker to publish files. For some ECAD tools and some neutral file formats, you must provide a ZIP file for server-controlled publishing. The ZIP file must contain a single design folder with multiple files.

• You must upload the files to publish to a WT.doc. This is true for zipped and unzipped files.

• You cannot publish CAD documents or ECAD Workgroup Manager (WGM) files.
