•When tiffing MSGs with oversized images the oversized image is not able to resize to fit the page.  This behavior is by design. LAW uses Outlook to print the documents and this result is the behavior of Outlook.

LAW directly supports printing of several file types. These are listed as follows:
 

•Binary/Hex Printer - *.bin, *.hex

•Text/RTF Printer - *.txt, *.rtf, *.ini, *.bat, *.vbs, *.java, *.cpp, and various other text based types.

•Image Printer - *.awd, *.bmp, *.dcx, *.gif, *.jpg, *.pdf, *.pex, *.tif, *.xif

•IrfanView - IrfanView is a graphic viewer application that can be used for imaging many supported file formats.  For a list of formats, click: http://www.irfanview.com/main_formats.htm

•Native PDF Printer - The Native PDF Printer source application can be used to print PFD (*.pdf) formatted files.

•Shell Printer - The Shell Printer source application can be used to print file types through any application that supports command line printing. In other words, if you can right-click on a file in Windows and select Print, to print the file through the associated application, then the application supports command line printing.

When the Shell Printer is set as the SourceApp for a document in CloudNine™ LAW, then the application associated with that file type in Windows will be used to convert the file to TIFF or print the file to paper in CloudNine™ LAW.

For example, a user imports a text file into LAW and sets the SourceApp to Shell Printer. On the user’s computer, text files are associated with Notepad. When the user converts the file to TIFF in CloudNine™ LAW, Notepad will be used to print the file to TIFF or PDF. The output image will be added to the record in CloudNine™ LAW, as it would when using any other SourceApp.

If using the Shell Printer, you must ensure that the application registered on the system for text files supports shell prints. For example, Notepad supports shell prints.

Supported file types for the Shell Printer source application include *.xps files.
 

•Compressed (ZIP archive) Files - LAW also supports printing zipped archives (*.zip) and self-extracting zip archives (*.exe). Zipped files will automatically be included in both file and e-mail print jobs. The contents of the archive will be processed according to the specified file types for printing. If a zip file happens to contain a zip file, Z-Print will recursively open the archives and process the supported file types. The filename extraction format for Zip files is in the format <Archive>^<Filename>.

LAW does not support printing Lotus 1-2-3 documents directly. In order to print these documents, you must have Microsoft Excel installed.

Printing WordPerfect files to MS Word may require an additional add-on found on the Microsoft Office installation CD. If this add-on is not installed prior to printing WordPerfect files, Word will be unable to recognize the file format and an error will be logged.

In order to use the "Snapshot Viewer", you must install support for the Microsoft Access Snapshot Viewer. If Microsoft Office with Access is installed, it can be added from the Office installation media. If Microsoft Access is not installed, a free viewer can be downloaded from Microsoft.

Both Internet Explorer and Word are capable of printing HTML (*.htm  / *.html) files. By default LAW prints these two file types to Internet Explorer due to issues with Word. If you experience any problems printing certain HTML files using Internet Explorer then try using Word to print.

Note: HTML files will always return a page count of 1 if the source application is set to Internet Explorer. If the source application is set to Microsoft Word, the page count will return 1 if the file is exactly 1 page long, or it will return 2 pages if the document is longer than a page. Accurate page counts for HTML files will be determined and logged after the file has been printed to either an image or paper.

Printing files with VoloView Express (*.dwg) automatically centers the drawing and fills the page.
