Viewing renditions

When you view documents as described in Viewing documents , you see either the source document or a read-only rendition of the document. By default, when you view a document in the PowerUser viewer, you see the source document even if a rendition is present in the vault. The default view in the Meridian Web Client is configured by a system administrator but is typically of the rendition, not the source document.

To make the rendition the default file shown when you view a document:

• Set the View renditions option as described in Setting personal preferences.

To switch the viewer from the source document to the rendition or vice versa:

• In the view bar, click the View Rendition icon .

  OR

  In the viewer window, click the Show native/rendition button .

To show the rendition in a full-size window:

• In the Document ribbon, in the Rendition group, click Show Rendition.

To make the rendition the default file shown when you view a document:

• Set the Show renditions by default option as described in Setting appearance options.

To switch the viewer from the source document to the rendition or vice versa:

• In the viewer window, click the Show native/rendition button .

To open the rendition in its Windows registered application:

1. In any navigation view, select the document that you want to view.

2. On the Document menu, click Open Rendition.

   Note    To open properly, the BCRenditionPropertySet.Format property of the rendition must be set to the file extension of the rendition. PowerUser will attempt to open the file in Adobe Reader if the property is empty.
