Sonic PDF Server can be installed on any server that:

  • Runs Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2003 Server or a server configuration of Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows 2003 that supports clients.
  • Has at least 128 MB RAM (512-1024 MB is recommended).
  • Has at least 60 MB free disk space for the PDF Server program and 1-10 gigabytes free disk space for storing temporary data (this amount depends on the traffic and some details of the configuration — whether the processed files are stored on the Server computer, for instance).
  • Has access to an Email system (if clients will send files via Email).
  • Can share specified folders for incoming and outgoing files (if clients will send files by local network and WatchFolders will be located on the server computer).
  • Has access to specified folders on other computers (if the server will pick up files for processing by local network and WatchFolders will be located on clients computers).
  • Has MS Excel installed (if conversion to Excel will be performed).
  • Has the corresponding MS Office applications installed — if creation of PDF files from MS Office documents is performed (say MS Word installed — for MS Word documents and so on).
  • Has the corresponding native application installed that supports the printing of the required file format — if creation of PDF files from non-MS Office documents is performed.
