FTP

Delivering Certified PDF Documents by FTP

Instead of delivering Certified PDF documents by

e-mail, you can also send them by FTP. FTP stands

for File Transfer Protocol. Sending files by FTP is

similar to copying files to a folder on a different

network drive. You transfer files from one server to

another. The difference is that the server of the

recipient is not a regular file server, but an FTP

server. This means the following:

• An FTP server has a typical name which can be

an Internet Protocol (IP) address or a Uniform

Resource Locator (URL), for example 168.192.2.1

or ftp.enfocus.com, respectively.

• You may need a user name and password to

access the FTP server.

The main benefit of using FTP instead of e-mail is

that you do not burden your e-mail server. There-

fore, using FTP is a better option if the file size of

your PDF documents can be large or if you, or the

PDF creators, will be sending many PDF documents.

To configure a PDF Queue to deliver Certified PDF

documents by FTP:

1 In the main Instant PDF window, click the PDF

Queues button to see the list of PDF Queues.

2 Select a PDF Queue in the list and click the

Edit button.

3 Make sure you are in the Advanced Enfocus

PDF Queue Editor: You should see the Stan-

dard button. If not, click the Advanced but-

ton.

4 Click the FTP category.

5 Select the option Deliver by FTP and specify at

least the Server Name. This can be an IP

address or a URL, for example 168.192.2.1 or

ftp.enfocus.com.

You may also want to specify:

•The Server Port, if required

• Choose between Active or Passive FTP.

Refer to the on-screen instructions for more details.

Providing a User Name and Password

You can enter a User Name and Password in the

queue editor if you require authentication of those

who will access the FTP server.

If the server requires a User Name and Password,

and it wasn’t entered in the Queue Editor, you will

be prompted for a User Name and Password in the

Jobs view when the job reaches the delivery state.

You then also get the option to remember the user

name and password.

However, if the User Name and Password setting is

locked, the delivery will fail.
