Configuring the rendering options

Basic rendering options can be set for every publishing job. They can be used to control the appearance of the published rendition. Using document properties to provide the rendering options can be configured as described in Configuring rendering option properties.

To configure the rendering options:

In Meridian Enterprise Server Configurator, in the Data Exchange group, click Jobs. The All Jobs page appears and lists the existing publishing jobs. The jobs are grouped by the name of the computer (cluster node) to which they have been assigned.
Double-click the publishing job that you want to configure. The Overview page appears.
On the menu, click RENDERING. The Rendering page appears and lists the existing rendering profiles. The profiles that have been assigned to the job are selected.
To create a new rendering profile:
- Click New and follow the steps described in Creating and editing a rendering profile.
To assign or unassign a rendering profile for the current job:
- Select or deselect the checkbox next to the profile name, accordingly. Do not select a rendering profile unless the rendering module used by that profile is installed on the computer where the rendering will occur.
To change the order in which the profiles will be attempted for the current job:
- Drag and drop the profiles into the correct order.
In the header, click SETTINGS. The basic rendering options appear.
Click options or type values using the descriptions in the following table.

Note Some of the options in the following table are only available for specific source or destination system types.

Rendering options
Option	Description
Use existing rendition	If enabled, prevents unnecessary re-rendering of vault documents. The existing rendition will be published instead if it is up to date.
Include redlines in rendition	If enabled, source document redlines are published to the destination system.
Publish unrendered	If enabled, publishes the source document in its native format if the document's file extension has not been configured in the rendering options of any rendering profile.
Use the next rendering profile if rendering fails	If enabled, allows failover rendering by a different rendering profile if a document cannot be rendered by the desired profile due to unavoidable errors. For example, if a drawing fails to render using the AutoCAD rendering module and the number of retries has been exceeded, the job can be retried using a profile with the AutoVue rendering module. To set the order in which rendering profiles will be attempted, see the preceding step. Note If rendering fails with any module and the next module is tried, the text _RETRYRENDER_<ModuleName>_ will be passed in the publishOptions arguments described in PublisherSourceEvent_AfterPublish event and PublisherDestinationEvent_AfterPublish event.

In the app bar, click SAVE.
