Introduction to pvsthumb
The Thumbnail Generator is used to generate thumbnails from Creo View format. The conversion process is generally referred to as thumbnail generation. The Thumbnail Generator must first be configured using the pvsthumb_config tool.
Thumbnail generation is accomplished in one of two ways:
• The Thumbnail Generator can also be run in the background to convert thumbnails as needed, without direct user intervention. This is called server controlled publishing. This method is described in
Server Controlled Publishing with pvsthumbworker.

Once a conversion is completed, the Creo View Adapter creates the files into a directory you specify, from which they can be accessed and viewed using the Creo View client.
