BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise 2017 Release Notes

What's New in BlueCielo Publisher Release 2014 SP2

BlueCielo Publisher 2014 SP2 adds the following new fixes and improvements:

• Documents published to BlueCielo Project Portal after adding a signature page now have correct filenames.
• The BlueCielo Project Portal system properties Author, AuthorEmail, Created, Modified, and Description can now be mapped in publishing jobs.
• BlueCielo Project Portal property place holders are now replaced correctly in signature page templates.
• When the Copy Content option is disabled for the Explorer synchronization job (and a rendering profile is not assigned) the job will now not use the local workspace of the server. This conserves disk space and may also have a positive affect on performance.
• Increases the maximum value of the Timeout option of a publishing job from 360 seconds to 32000 seconds to allow time for large rendering jobs to complete before the job fails.
• Adds a new setting EnableUseRenditionForLinkedDocuments to the PublisherCapability.dat file that, when set to true, shows a new publishing job option Use exisiting rendition for linked documents on the MERGING tab of the job. If that option is enabled and renditions already exist for the linked documents, those renditions are merged with the current document rendition instead of regenerating the linked renditions.
• Removes the _GROUP_ rendering option so that rendition merging can performed by the Update Rendition command in Meridian Enterprise PowerUser. This is a breaking change that affects existing configurations that use the _GROUP_ option. The configuration must be modified to not rely on the _GROUP_ option.
• Adds support for BlueCielo Project Portal 2015. Also fixes an issue in which the rendition filename was incorrect after rendering with the AutoVue rendering module.
• If the Use job advanced rendering settings and Defaults if job advanced rendering settings cannot be matched options of the publishing job are enabled but the rendition properties of the source document are empty, the settings of the Force all colors to black and Document pages options of the rendering profile will be used.
• Files were not correctly rendered and a PDF template file was published instead when the following options were configured:

  • The file extension was registered with a rendering module

  • The Publish action for file extension not assigned in any rendering profile was set to Publish PDF template

  • A PDF template was specified

  • The Input extension option was empty

  • The Use for empty extension option was enabled

  • The Use for empty documents option was enabled

• Rendering batches of Office files now longer causes timeouts or The RPC server is unavailable errors.
• The BlueCielo Project Portal system link has been improved by logging more events and a bug was fixed that caused new revisions of documents to be created in a loop when the service was restarted on the Project Portal server.
• Adds a new batch publishing job option Continue if any job fails. If enabled and one job in the batch fails for any reason, the other jobs in the batch will still be run.
• Rendering to PDF with the AutoVue rendering module is now supported on Windows Server 2012.
• Adds audit logging to the AutoCAD rendering module.
