Getting started with Open Client
Open Client is an optional addition to FileNet Web Services. Without downloading
or installing any FileNet software, Open Client users can access documents in
Image Services (IS) and Content Services (CS) libraries through a web browser.
A user can view a retrieved document in these ways:
- In the document's registered application, if the application is installed
on the workstation.
- In the browser (for example, using the Acrobat Reader plug-in to view PDF
documents).
- In the IDM Viewer. The administrator must enable the IDM Viewer using a
site preference, and the user must download and install the viewer.
- In the Java Viewer. The administrator must enable the Java Viewer using
a site preference. No download is necessary.
Open Client was developed using Microsoft's .NET technology.
