Client-side PDF document production removed

In previous releases, you could optionally do PDF document production either client-side or server-side. In conjunction with other changes to document production, in version 8.0 the client-side PDF document production is unsupported.

Server-side PDF document production, continues to work unchanged in this release.

Client-side production on Windows for Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel work unchanged in this release. However, the client-side production is managed by the new Java applet instead of an ActiveX control. In version 8.0, the Document Assistant is a Java applet that encapsulates client-side scripts. On Windows, the client-side scripts are JScript merge scripts for Windows versions of Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel.
