Title: AFP2PDF Transformer Workflow Chart
Post by: fnb4321 on August 22, 2016, 09:47:33 AM

  Does anyone have any documentation or workflow charts on how the afp2pdf transformer works ?

I've been asked by new supervisor for workflow and was haven't found anything suitable with google search and would rather not start from scratch..

Anyone have any diagrams, etc. on how the afp2pdf transformer operates ?

Well I don't have one, but basically the workflow is the following:

1) Client Request a AFP through ODWEK Java API
2) ODWEK Java API get the AFP in CMOD Server
3) ODWEK Java API use the AFP2PDF to convert the AFP into a PDF
4) ODWEK Java API sends to the Client the converted PDF with the associated MIME type "application/pdf"
5) The Client receive the PDF and according to the MIME type it will open it using the default application registered with the MIME type "application/pdf"

There is not much more than that... Or am I wrongly understanding your question?
