Customize Watchdoc Print Client for Windows

Principle

Like most WES and WEScan, the Watchdoc Print Client for Windows graphical interface can be customised with your own images, logo and colour.

Procedure

Test the images customization

Before modifying the default WPC for Windows images on the Watchdoc server (with an impact on all client workstations), you can carry out a customisation test from a client workstation:

1. As administrator, access a client workstation on which WPC for Windows is installed;

2. Using Explorer, go to the WPC images folder (C:\Program Files\Doxense\Watchdoc Print Client\binassets\images\);

3. Create a folder called test_customization ;

4. In this folder, create the 4 default images for the WPC for Windows interfaces, respecting the dimensions of the original images:

   • background.png: 211pt x 232 pt

   • filigran.png: 216pt x 100.5pt

   • logo.png: 330 pt x 36.75 pt

   • user_profile.png: 180.5 pt x 164 pt
     
     

   N.B.: you can also copy the contents of the External folder, which contains the default images, and create your own custom images from these templates.
   
   
   

 

5. launch WPC for Windows to check the display of the customised images;

6. retouch them if necessary.

→ As soon as the personalised images are satisfactory, finalise the personalisation on the Watchdoc server.

When you are satisfied with the customised images, you can :

1. finalise the image customisation
