Ensure that Rendition Engine properly converts Microsoft Word and Microsoft
Excel documents that contain hyperlinks, external links, image links, and other links. Hyperlinks
must not be updated, but must be kept relative.
Complete this step on the
IBM®
FileNet® Rendition Engine server and on each
client computer where Microsoft Office applications such
as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, or Microsoft PowerPoint are
installed. These settings ensure that hyperlinks are treated correctly during publishing.
Important: The changes take effect on all Microsoft
Office applications that are installed on the server.
To configure Microsoft Office
hyperlinks:
- Open the application options:
- (Office 2010) In any Microsoft Office application,
click .
- (Office 2007) In any Microsoft Office application,
click the Microsoft Office button, and then:
- For Microsoft Word, click Word
Options.
- For Microsoft Excel, click Excel
Options.
- For Microsoft PowerPoint, click PowerPoint
Options.
- Click Advanced.
- Scroll down to the General tab, and click Web
Options.
- Select the Files tab.
- Select the Use long file names whenever possible check box.
This setting ensures that Rendition Engine properly converts Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint,
documents that contain hyperlinks, external links, image links, and other links.
- Clear the Update links on save check box.
This setting ensures that hyperlinks are not updated but are kept relative. If this setting is
not done, a document with an HTML link points to the location where the source document was copied
during publishing.
