Online Documentation is live!

The full Notes Migrator for SharePoint documentation set installed with the product (User Guide, Installation Guide, Release Notes) is now also available online at  http://documents.quest.com/Product.aspx?id=20.  This will become a standard for many Quest products, but I am happy to say that we were one of the first!

One thing I like about this new facility is how the search works.  Depending on where you start from, you can search one particular document, all Notes Migrator for SharePoint documents, or all Quest documents.

Allowing PDF files to open in the browser

Leave a Comment Posted by on May 25, 2012

Does your SharePoint server force you to save PDF files to disk first, instead of opening them directly from your list or library?  If you are lucky enough to have access to SharePoint Central Administration, there is a simple way to fix this in your web application’s General Settings.

 

The details are discussed in this blog post by Bram Nuyts: http://bramnuyts.be/2011/11/03/allowing-pdf-files-to-open-in-the-browser/. 

Now if only Microsoft would change this setting on Office 365!  Without it, archiving your old Notes applications as PDF documents is a lot less satisfying.
