Viewing documents

You can open documents with the viewer from anywhere the document's name is shown. Once opened, you can use the viewer's tools to examine the document.

(Undefined variable: BlueCielo Variables.ExplorerName) can use one of the following viewers to show documents:

  • AutoVue
  • BlueCielo viewer (ActiveX) that is installed on your PC by the Meridian Web Client setup program
  • Adobe Reader installed on your PC
  • PDFTron server-based viewer can be used to view PDF renditions

Which viewer is used and for what documents is determined by the viewers that are available to the client PC, by the central options configured as described in the following task, and by the preferences that are configured by the user. The default viewer window options are acceptable for most users but you can configure numerous options to further optimize their experience.

Note    
  • You might not see any content for some documents depending on how the view has been configured by an administrator. Content might also not be available depending on whether a rendition exists in the source vault and whether the rendition is out of date because the source document has been modified. To confirm that you are viewing the correct document, view the document and its status in (Undefined variable: BlueCielo Variables.MeridianName) PowerUser or the (Undefined variable: BlueCielo Variables.MeridianName) Web Client.
  • To view the available redline markups for a document, open the Feedback page of the document (markups synchronized with the source vault) as described in Using the Feedback page or view the comments (not synchronized) for the document as described in Viewing comments.

To view a document from the results list:

  1. Right-click the document name. The shortcut menu appears.
  2. Click View. The selected document opens.
