Configuring the Teigha DWG rendering module options Configuring the Teigha DWG rendering module optionsThe Teigha DWG rendering module options specify which drawing layouts to render, how they are rendered, and to which format in the destination system.
To configure the Teigha DWG rendering options:
In Meridian Enterprise Server Administration Console, in the Data Exchange group, click Rendering Profiles. The All Rendering Profiles page appears and lists the existing profiles grouped by the name of the computer (cluster node) to which they are assigned.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
|
Name |
The name of the rendering profile as seen in Administration Console. |
|
Computer |
The name of the Meridian Enterprise Server computer (cluster node) on which to run this job. |
|
Input extensions |
The quantity of source file extensions to be rendered by this module. To select extensions:

|
OUTPUT group |
|
|
Use job advanced rendering settings |
Select this option if the page size and orientation are stored as property values for the source documents and the corresponding options are selected as described in Configuring rendering options. If those options are not selected, select default values from Paper size and Orientation. |
|
NEW
Xref paths |
Comma-delimited list of locations to search for external reference files. Locations may be specified as filenames (linked by Meridian Enterprise references), paths relative to the parent document, or absolute paths to shared network folders. External references are resolved in the following order:
Note If an external reference resides both in the vault and in a location outside the vault, the external location will take precedence. MicroStation logical variables are not supported. |
| PAGE SETUP group | |
|
Page size |
Select a page size for the output from the list. |
|
Orientation |
Select a page orientation option. |
|
Color |
Select an option from the list to indicate the color depth of the rendition. |
|
Layouts to export |
Select an option for the layouts to include in the output. |
|
Custom layout |
Name of the layout to include in the output if Layouts to export is set to Custom. |
|
OTHER OPTIONS group |

Adobe PRC support |
If enabled, renders ACIS 3D objects in the source drawing as Product Representation Compact (PRC) data in the rendition. Select how the objects should be rendered, as boundary representations (BREP option) or as mesh representations (MESH option). |
|
Embedded fonts |
Embed the fonts that are used by the rendition in the output file so that they can be shown on systems where they are not installed. |
|
TrueType as geometry |
Render text that is drawn with TrueType fonts using polylines. Note Disable this option if the text in PDF renditions will be searched. |
|
SHX text as geometry |
Render text that is drawn with SHX fonts using polylines. Note Disable this option if the text in PDF renditions will be searched. |
|
Enable simple geometry optimization |
Use a rendering algorithm that optimizes simple geometry such as line segments into more complex entities such as polylines in the output. This option reduces performance slightly but produces smaller files. |
|
Encoded |
Compresses images in the output file to save space. |
