Adobe Reader Extensions
To enable Adobe Reader extensions in order to allow markup capabilities with Creo View and Adobe Reader, perform the following steps:
1. Log in to Windchill as the Site Administrator or as an Organization Administrator.
2. Navigate from
Site or
Organizations to > . Expand the
Visualization and
Adobe Experience Manager server sections by clicking the
icon. Set the
Reader Extensions Enabled preference to
Yes.
3. To verify that Adobe Reader extensions are being applied to PDF files when Representations are created, navigate to a WTDocument and display the Representation Listing. Create a new representation and select a PDF on your local disk that currently does not have markup capabilities with Adobe Reader. Submit the file to the Create Representation wizard, and go to the WVS Job Monitor and review the Job Details. The Job Details should contain a message similar to the following:
Oct 15, 2015 3:47:41 AM: Calling Adobe Experience Manager server to process "My_Document.pdf"
When the publish job completes, open the new representation in Creo View from the Representation Listing. Assuming that the client machine has Adobe Reader installed, Creo View displays the PDF file using Adobe Reader. Enable he markup capabilities, allowing markups to be created and saved into Windchill.
