is the way it works when using "Publish as FSI Pages with links" in FSI Server web
interface. A great advantage of this option is, that the data persists even when
renaming or moving images.
For imaging servers not capable of serving IPTC data to FSI Pages, you need to
choose one of the alternative methods below.
b) Using individual XML files
Image date
XML page data
Image
page.xml
Pages
An alternative
way to
provide XML page data is
using external XML files.
With this method each
image requires a related XML file containing the page data stored in a directory on
your web server. The XML files have to be named after the related images with the
additional suffix ".xml".
Example:
The XML file name for the image "page065.tif" must be "page065.tif.xml".
Usually FSI Pages Converter creates the required files for you when converting
a PDF document. Please enable the option "XML Output" of FSI Pages
Converter in this case.
Example: You converted a PDF document "catalog1.pdf" using FSI Pages
Converter and enabled the "XML Output" option. In the output directories you
specified in FSI Pages converter you can now find the TIFF files and the related
XML files, e.g.
pagee0001.tif
page0001.tif.xml
page0002.tif
page0002.tif.xml
Now you need to upload the images to your imaging server and upload the XML files
to a directory on your web server.
Finally you need to provide FSI Pages with the information where the XML files can
be found on your web server. Please add the Parameter
→ XMLBase to your
configuration for this purpose.
Say the XML files can be accessed via:
http://www.myserver.com/xmldata/page01.tif.xml
http://www.myserver.com/xmldata/page02.tif.xml
