# Specify Document Processing

When you send a View action, use the OutputType parameter to specify the way that the View component processes the document. Set OutputType to one of the following values:

`HTML` | Converts the document to HTML. It also modifies relative or inline URL links with a prefix specified by the URLPrefix parameter.
`ReplaceURLs` | Modifies all relative or inline URL links with a prefix specified by the URLPrefix action parameter. If you do not specify a URLPrefix, View uses the value of the DefaultURLPrefix configuration parameter. This output type does not convert the document to HTML.
`Raw` | Returns the original document without any conversion or modification. In this case, highlighting is not available, unless the original document is in HTML format.
`Redirect` | Directs the client to the original Web site to display the original document. In this case, highlighting is not available.

By default, OutputType is set to:

- `ReplaceURLs` when the document reference is a URL with the prefix `http:`, `https:`, `msx:`, or `notes`.

- `HTML` for all other documents.
