Internet Ready

With the optional AutoEDMS Web Publisher (WP), users can query, view, print, and download managed files through standard web browsers.

Version 6.5 SR2 also includes a new integration interface to the AutoEDMS WP/aVue system. Users can integrate the WP/aVue solution with their existing web site, such as a manufacturing portal or GIS system.
