Document Conversion - Content Type Configuration


I did this one day and forgot where I did it the next. So after a bunch of fiddling around and retracing my steps I'm putting this here as a reminder of how and where this is.

So assuming you have document conversion set up. You'll need to go to the site setting of the site you want to configure.


Select Content Types



In my case I wanted to manage documents so click on the Source Column of the Document Site Content Type Row in the Site Content Type Gallery.



and click on Document.



It might be that you can't see the option I am talking about here. You might need to turn on publishing at the site collection level of your site.

Now the options start making more sense so...Click Manage document conversion for this content type.



In the Allowed converters for this content type: section click the Configure... link of the document converter you are interested in configuring.



Voila...this is configuration screen.


Theme caching

When editing a theme you might find that the changes you make don't stick.

change the theme to one that is not your theme.

reset IIS (iisreset) or recycle the app pool that you site is running under.

then change the theme back to reveal your latest edits.

hooray!

How to activate Document Conversion

A nice feature in sharepoint for users that like to use word as a content editor. They can upload a word docx document and convert it to a web page in sharepoint.

Themes a glitch in naming

Just a warning on themes. If you get an error when applying your theme that looks like this

A theme with the name MyTheme 1011? and version already exists on the server.
Then you have either forgotten to edit the INF file in your theme or your theme name has pattern matched another theme in your theme directory. In my case I copied verdant and named it verdantx this gave me the error i mentioned above because it clashed with the original theme...maybe I should use GUIDS for the theme names to fix this.

Post Build Events

I posted this on my site...mostly to remind me. Handy bit of functionality
