Enabling server-side print preview for the PrinterOn Mobile App
The Advertised Capabilities panel of the General tab lets you advertise to client applications such as the PrinterOn Mobile App, what capabilities the service supports. The client app queries the PrinterOn Server to determine service capabilities and limitations and optimizes its behavior based on the response.
When server-side preview is enabled, the PrintAnywhere Server renders the document and generates print preview images (one image for each page of the document) on behalf of the PrinterOn Mobile App.
By default, the PrinterOn Mobile App integrates with the mobile device’s preview capabilities. However, the previewing capabilities of the devices are typically very limited, so many document formats cannot be previewed, or the preview does not accurately reflect the appearance of the printed document. Server-side preview enables the PrinterOn Mobile App to display accurate previews for documents of any supported format. The preview images are stored separately from the print data.
