Incorrect sizes generated while using iCS to generate PDF renditions


Product(s):OpenBuildings Designer and  i-model Composition Server
Version(s):CONNECT Edition
Area:Bentley i-model Composition Server
Subarea:PDF Renditions

Problem Description

When I submit a PDF Rendition, the size of the PDF is incorrect.  It does not correspond to the paper size set in the settings file being used in the Source File Presentation in ProjectWise Administrator.

Steps to Resolve

  1. An invalid printer was set in the IP.CFG file on the iCS for PDF server. Setting the IP_DCS_RENDITION_PRINTER variable from the default settings of "ProjectWise Dynamic Composition Server" to  "HP Designjet XXXX XX" (Printer selected ) on iCS server solve the problem.
  2. IP.CFG is located in the following directory on the iCS for PDF server: C:\Program Files (x86)\ProjectWise InterPlot Organizer\config
