Hi,
I am wondering if anybody out there knows how to create the Office 2013 formats in Documentum.
I thought that D7 might have but I was wrong, in fact, the D7 does provide only the Office 2010 formats!
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Office 2013 formats are not available on the Documentum 7 Platform, so the workaround would be appending the text ‘2013’ to the Office 2010 format descriptions in the formats.csv file (i.e description = 'MS Word Document 2007 / 2010 / 2013') and run the dm_apply_formats.ebs script.
Office 2013 and Office 2010 are using the same file format dos extensions: docx, docm ….
To run the ebs script you can use the following command:
dmbasic -f$DM_HOME/bin/dm_apply_formats.ebs -etestmain -pnoreport <docbase name> <installation owner> <password> $DM_HOME/install/tools/formats.csv trace
Cheers
Instead of adding 2013 to the label, personnaly, I prefer removing version numbers, that way, the users just select Microsoft Word and assume, rightly, that it's the version of Office they have.
When Microsoft will change the extension again, then I'll put back the versions, including 2013, for this dm_format extension and remove it for the new one, when it iwll be in Documentum (I'll probably create the dm_format Myself before it happens though, that will be faster )
My 2 cents
NICE
Thanx.
