Thumbnail Generator Prerequisites for PDF Drawings
Select the following items to ensure that your system is able to run the Thumbnail Generator:
The Thumbnail Generator must be supported on the operating system and meet the minimum requirements as shown in the Creo View Adapters Software Matrix.
The thumbnail generator is no longer supported on UNIX. To convert thumbnails in server controlled publishing mode when using UNIX, you will need a remote thumbnail worker.
Ensure that your operating system has adequate CPU and storage systems.
* 
To specify the use of a thumbnail worker, instead of a locally installed thumbnail generator, set thumbnail.usecadagent=true in the wvs.properties file.
