PlanetPress Search Database tab
If PlanetPress Workflow is configured to automatically update a PlanetPress Search database
(See "PlanetPress Image preferences" on page710), this tab can be used to override the
global settings so that the task updates a different database than the one set in that global
configuration. In order for the settings to work, the Add PDF to PlanetPress Search database
must be checked. However, you can override which database will be updating using the option
in this window, Override global PlanetPress Search Database settings. The database options
then activate.
l Database type: Select the type of the database in which you want to create a table
(Access, or SQL Server).
l Connection time-out: Enter the time, in seconds, that the connection to the database is
maintained while no action is taking place before the connection is severed.
l Database directory: Enter the path of the directory in which the Access database is
located, or use the Browse button to navigate to, and select, the directory. This option is
available only when you select Access database in the Database type box.

option is available only when you select SQL Server database or Oracle database in the
Database type box.

profile on that SQL Server or Oracle database. Clear to enter the name of the database in
the box that appears.

PDI files from the generated PDF files. If you are using an SQL database, enter the login
name you chose when you configured the SQL database (refer to the “Using
PlanetPressSearch with an SQL Server Database” section of the PlanetPress Search
User Guide).

database.
