Question:
How do I enable the Aspose rendering engine?

Answer:
Starting with DocuWare 6.8, it is now possible to use a different rendering engine for Microsoft Office documents. This new engine "Aspose" will generally produce excellent results in the DocuWare Viewer. Keep in mind however, that we can never guarantee 100% faithful reproduction.

  1. Stop the Content Server and end all Imaging worker tasks from task manager.
  2. Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\DocuWare\Imaging.
    Backup the DocuWare.Imaging.Worker.exe.config file.
    Edit the DocuWare.Imaging.Worker.exe.config with Notepad.
    Find the section <decoderSettings>
  3. Uncomment the Aspose commands by removing the Comment line before and after the section.
    Before:
    ...
    <decoderSettings>
        <Decoders>
          <add name="DwPdf"/>
          <add name="DynaPdf"/>
          <add name="LeadTools"/>
          <add name="Stellent"/>
     
        <!-- uncomment to use Aspose 
          <add name="Aspose.Words"/>
          <add name="Aspose.Cells"/>
          <add name="Aspose.Slides"/>
          <add name="Aspose.Email"/>
       
      -->
        </Decoders>
    ...

    After:
    ...
    <decoderSettings>
        <Decoders>
          <add name="DwPdf"/>
          <add name="DynaPdf"/>
          <add name="LeadTools"/>
          <add name="Stellent"/>
          <add name="Aspose.Words"/>
          <add name="Aspose.Cells"/>
          <add name="Aspose.Slides"/>
          <add name="Aspose.Email"/>
        </Decoders>
    ...
