Windchill Visualization Services Publishing (Batch Print)
Windchill Visualization Services publishing is covered in the following reference topics:
The WVS Job Monitor allows you to view the status of publish jobs. See WVS Job Monitor for more information.
A printer configuration defines a list of available printers, along with the defaults and constraints for each printer. Using the Visualization Configuration Administration utility, you define valid printer configurations by creating a PrinterConfig.xml file in the Site or Organizations container. For a complete description of a Simple Printer Configuration, see Simple Printer Configuration. For a complete description of a Complex Printer Configuration, see Complex Printer Configuration.
Batch Print includes server-side printing capability, which allows you to print individual jobs and/or queues; a print subscription and notification capability; and the watermarking of objects. There is also a collection mechanism for data to be printed, whereby you can locate all drawings for an EPM structure. Batch print also includes the automated extraction of drawing sizes, so you can print drawings to a desired printer or printer tray (for different sizes and types of paper). You can also control batch print launch points, such as for a representable business object (e.g., WTPart); for a representation (e.g., of a CAD assembly), or from the Clipboard. See Batch Print for instructions.
A discussion of Preferences specific to Batch Print can be found in Batch Print Preferences.
