Chapter 1 Changes in Behavior This section contains information about the differences in behavior between Kofax Communication Server 9.1.1 and previous releases. PDF to TIFF Scaling KCS supports PDF to TIFF conversion with scaling to a configurable page size. Supported page sizes are Letter, Legal, A3, A4, A5. (SPR00072019) The page size can be configured in the printer settings of the “TOPCALL TIFF to TCDC” printer (parameter Paper Size).
Changes in Behavior TC/LINK-SM Temporary Directory The default temporary work directory of links based on TC/LINK-SM is now changed from C:\TEMP\ to C:\TCOSS\TCLP\WORK\. The directory is created automatically if it does not exist on link startup. (SPR00070431) This applies only to new installations. The following links are affected: ▪ TC/LINK-SM-OC ▪ TC/LINK-MX7 ▪ TC/LINK-SC7 ▪ TC/LINK-SDD ▪ TC/LINK-MFP For more information, see: ▪ TC/LINK-MX7 Technical Manual, version 1.01.
Changes in Behavior For more information, see: ▪ TC Probe Manual, version 1.01.00 edition 2 Chapter Installation, Configuration, Maintenance - Installation Steps Chapter Probe-Specific TCLINK Configuration Options - Probe SMS Messages IP Printer Retry Behavior The retry behavior of KCS IP Printer can now be configured to reduce the priority of print jobs that fail to print on the first attempt. Use the new configuration parameter TcPriorityChange to enable this feature. The default behavior is unchanged.
Changes in Behavior by the sender's KCS user profile. If both WithNotifs and WithEvents are set to NO, only the original send orders are displayed in the report. Note Backup databases created with this version of TC/Report contain the new fields. The existing backup databases are not updated to contain them. Therefore, it is not possible to make UNIV and UNIV_GRAPH reports from existing backup databases: you must add the fields manually to the backup databases (action_table), e.g.
Changes in Behavior Enhancements in LDAP DirSync LDAP directory synchronization now has two new features: (SPR00091400) ▪ You can now specify domain for directory synchronization. ▪ Dirsync history is now saved for multiple domain controllers. If the most recently used domain controller is unavailable, and a different one has been used before, only incremental dirsync is performed. New / changed registry keys: ▪ ADDCName - changed to contain the fully qualified name of the preferred domain controller.
Changes in Behavior TC/LINK-LN: Some Messages Cannot Be Processed With Lotus Notes client software older than release 8.5.3, some messages cannot be processed by TC/LINK-LN. Installing Lotus Notes client 8.5.3 on the TC/LINK computer solves the problem. (SPR00092299) For more information, see: ▪ TC/LINK-LN Technical Manual, version 2.17.
Changes in Behavior upgrading to this release. The new value prevents document conversion problems. (SPR00091840) For more information, see: ▪ TC/PDD User Manual, version 3.03.00 edition 5 Chapter Hints - Advanced Printing Features May Cause Document Conversion Problems KCS FoIP: Suppression of Redirecting Number KCS Fax over IP can be configured to suppress the redirecting number; i.e., the number of the party that has diverted the call is not evaluated. This function can be used e.g.
Changes in Behavior For more information, see: ▪ KCS FoIP Technical Manual, version 3.13.05 edition 1 Chapter Integration with KCS - Supplementary Services - Call Diversion (Redirecting Number) - Use Redirecting Number for Fax Calls KCS FoIP: Call Peers Blocking It is now possible to configure KCS Fax over IP to accept only incoming calls from IP addresses that match with any of the configured call peers.
Changes in Behavior For more information, see: ▪ KCS Client Applications Administrator's Manual, version 9.01.01 edition 1 Chapter Maintaining User Profiles - Authorize / Sign TCfW: Mark Resent, Rerouted, Resubmitted, and Forwarded Messages as Duplicates TCfW Communication Server Client can now be configured to mark messages that have been resent, rerouted, resubmitted, or forwarded as possible duplicates.
Changes in Behavior For more information, see: ▪ TCfW Communication Server Client User Manual, version 5.35.00 edition 1 Chapter Folders on the Kofax Communication Server - OUT Box - Standard OUT Box Fields TCfW, TCWeb: Users Can Be Denied the Right to Mark Messages Complete A new user right has been added for KCS users: “May mark complete”. If selected, user has the right to mark incoming messages as complete. This right is granted by default.
Changes in Behavior TC/Web VoiceMail Security Policy TC/Web can now be configured to enforce the same voicemail password security policy as when setting the password via telephone. This feature is now enabled by default. (SPR00069646) The behavior is controlled by the new registry key VoiceEnhancedPwdCheck. Two additional registry keys control the length of the password: VoicePwdMin and VoicePwdMax. You need to restart Internet Information Services to make the changes active (iisreset command).
