General considerations
Here are some general considerations in regards to PlanetPress Capture, its environment, the
hardware and the software that interacts with it. Please review these considerations carefully as
they may impact PlanetPress Capture and its functionality.
Warning
PlanetPress Capture Fields cannot simply be inserted into an existing document as-is
and expected to work properly, efficiently or consistently. In order to design a document
with Capture Fields, you must review and understand the Critical PlanetPress Capture
Implementation Restrictions.
Database considerations (ODBC)
Note
On 64-bit operating systems, the ODBC Data Sources created by the Data Source
(ODBC) icon in the Administrative Tools will not appear here, as PReS Suite is 32-bit
and cannot access the 64-bit data sources. In order to create an ODBC connection visible
by PReS, you will need to access the 32-bit version of the ODBC manager, available in
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe .
The following considerations should be kept in mind while working with ODBC Databases in
PReS Suite.
l
All databases
l
User Rights: During normal operation, Read/Write to tables should be sufficient.
However, during the initial setup, the Create/Drop tables rights is necessary.
l Minimum 100MB of database size is required as a minimum, but the space
requirement depends on the implementation. The more active documents in the
database, the more space is used - note that this progression is rather linear.
l Regular database maintenance is required, such as database compacting, is
required by a system administrator.
l It is recommended to create an IT process that backs up the database regularly.
