Log File — name of the folder where the log files will be placed.
There are 2 log files created for each day when PDF Server has been active — one for standard events (Fig 4), the other — for errors (Fig 5).

Fig. 4.

Failed Folder — if conversion/creation has failed, the original file and the corresponding Job Ticket file (if applicable) are moved into this folder

Processed Folder — the folder where the original document file will be placed after it has been picked up from a Watch Folder and processed successfully (only if Put in Processed Folder option has been selected inside Source file frame — see Fig.3, bottom)

(Absolute PDF Server and Able2Extract Server only) Number of Threads — number of threads used to process files (number of threads must be greater or equal 2). The default value is 5 threads.

(Absolute PDF Server and Able2Extract Server only) File size boundary — allows the Administrator to change the boundary used to separate large files from others. (to prevent PDF Server from being blocked by big files — q. e. files with the size greater than File size boundary value — there is only one thread to process big files). The default value is 1 MB.
