Maintaining Conversion Types

A conversion type is a configuration for one type of conversion that can be performed by the Resource Server. A conversion type consists of these four properties:

• Width: The width in pixels for the converted image.
• Height: The height in pixels for the converted image.
• MIME type: The MIME type for the converted image.
• File Extension: The file extension for the converted image.

There are two groups of conversion types, predefined and user defined. The predefined types Thumbnail and Preview, are two types of conversions that will be performed on all item types in Infor Document Management. They should never be removed or the Resource Server will stop functioning. The values of the Thumbnail and Preview conversion types can be altered to best suit the needs of the specific application. User defined conversion types can be added when the need occurs.
