Basic Workflow for Installation and Configuration
Though the steps vary from adapter to adapter, this is the basic setup process:
1. Install the adapter from the Creo View Adapters media.
2. Configure the setup directory and select one or more publishing methods in the configuration dialog box.
3. If necessary, edit the default settings in the Recipe Editor.
4. Configure additional adapter-specific tools and settings where required.
5. Validate the configuration.
6. Publish the design files using one of the publishing methods.
