Extracting document revisions and renditions
- Search for the record which contains the revisions or renditions you want to extract
- In the search results window, right-click the record and select Properties
- Select the Revisions or the Renditions tab
- Right-click the item you want to extract and select Extract.
The Extract Electronic Document dialogue box appears.
By default, Content Manager will extract the document to your My Documents folder or equivalent, depending on your operating system.
If you want to save it in a different folder, either type in the folder and file name or use the Browse button to select a folder.
- Launch associated application? - select to open the extracted document in its associated application
- Click OK.
Content Manager saves a copy of the document to the folder you specified.
NOTE:
- Content Manager extracts renditions and uses the file extension - for example, .docx or .txt - they were checked in with
- Rendition extraction and hidden documents - some applications - for example, AutoVue - cannot update hidden documents. Content Manager therefore extracts renditions as visible files.
This enables rendition functionality to be used with applications that cannot process hidden files.
