Control-D Delivery Server Resource Management

Control-D Delivery Server uses print resources, saved in the Resource Manager directory, to transform reports from Control-D. All report resources must be available to successfully transform reports. A report fails to transform when a critical resource is unavailable. Resources might include the following:

• Fonts

• Page definitions.

• Segments

• Form definitions.

• Report Cliques.

• Graphics and images.

• Overlay definitions.

• Color management.

• Index and data resources.

You can configure how the transformers behaves with the FailOnMissingResources Report Clique parameter when any of the required resources is missing.

• Never: Transformation does not fail when non-critical resources are unavailable. The resources do not appear in the report or uses substitute resources, such as, missing fonts.

• Always: Transformation fails when any resource is unavailable.

• Decollate: The transformation fails when you request normalized data or text but does not fail when you transform a report to PDF, HTML or PCL report formats.

The following sections describe which resources you require for each report format.

• AFP Resources

• XEROX Resources

• PCL Fonts

• Font Mapping Resources
