  1. Hyperlink Page of Document in DocuWare Web Client

    It would be nice to be able to link any page of a document in DocuWare web client to a website. For example, if you are attaching a tracking page from ups.com, it would be nice to click on that page and pull up the same information on ups.com.

  2. Web basket empty or not ?

    In the webclient, when you have several baskets, it's not possible to see quickly which basket is empty and which not. We have to open every one. With the old Windows Client, it was easy to see, because the symbol wasn't the same

  3. View attachments within Outlook .msg files

    90% of our documents are Outlook .msg files, most with embedded attachments (mostly pdf's). They are inserted using an automated Active Import process. The embedded attachments look like a clickable link in the web client, but of course they don't open. It would be great to be able to click that link and open those embedded documents (see attached for example).

  4. Remember the last used annotation after moving to next/previous document

    In the web client when you choose an annotation such as the "Write text on overlay" it does not remember the last used annotation function after changing pages. The windows client would remember the last function and not require the user to continually click the same function over and over again. This becomes very frustrating when working on a large batch of files. Please see the attached file for a detailed walk through of the problem.

  5. I suggest to allow opening multiple selected documents in tabs

    I suggest to offer a possibility to open documents as a new tab. The opened documents would be shown as tabs within the viewer and allow fast switching between documents and allow opening multiple documents that are selected in a result list with just one click.

  6. Better usage of the open Microsoft Office format

    The new Microsoft Office formats are open and formatted with XML. It would be nice to use this better, for example with comparison of two documents (Regarding versioning) or for automatic indexing for known documents. The index values could be read directly in the XML data. Most documents are created with the Microsoft Office package.

  8. Limit list of stamp with values of a fields

    When you have many stamp it is difficult for the user to know which to choose. The list should be limited according to, for example, the type of document or its state etc.

  9. Make the zoom level of the Document Overview persistent.

    Is there a way to make the zoom level of the Document Overview persist whenever it is summoned anew? If not, can we get that feature added? I don't know why anyone would ever NOT want the Document Overview to remember the size of the thumbnails that has been previously selected...

  10. Ability to download a document in Excel format

    We have reports that are getting imported into DocuWare as a DOCX file. A nice feature to the download section would be to convert the report to an Excel (xlsx) format. The accounting side of the business could then filter and work with the information better.

  12. Make the highlighter tool like the one in Word or Google Docs.

    The current highlighter tool covers up the word it is highlighting to much. Also it should not be a freestyle highlighter, but used like that in Word or Google Docs.

  14. show open files without documents in Explorer - accommodating structured file plans

    At my institution we have a structure file plan/classification scheme that must be adhered to. Users like using the Explorer View to browse for their documents, and we've currently set it up so that the first folder layer is the file code, with the specific folders belonging to that category displaying "within" it. The issue is that open files with no electronic documents attached to them do not display to the user. We have a work-around by putting a temp file in each newly created folder. Please make these open folders with no documents in them visible!

  15. Direct Access to Files Within a Document

    The current version of Docuware relies on PDF file structures but there are a great number of clients that have TIFF and DWTIFF images that are all each treated as a single clipped file in a Document. This creates a big problem for the users who wish to go directly to an image within a file with a large number of pages.

    There are 2 solutions both of which I think need to be applied to Docuware as they both solve multiple problems.

    1: Build a Pre 6 DW document to PDF file conversion workflow. This would allow clients with…

  16. Default the arrow and page up/down keys to page and document flipping in the write version

    In our read-only version, the arrow keys flip through pages. The page up/down keys flip through documents. However, in the write version, the focus in on the text box, so these keys don't flip through pages or documents. You have to change the focus by clicking on the document in the viewer to reset the keys to flipping. You must do this every time a new document is opened. I absolutely see the benefits of having the text box selected by default, but it would also be nice to flip through things with keyboard shortcuts by default. Thanks for listening.

  17. Go directly to the page that contains that indexed value

    The ability to go directly to the page that contains that indexed value. For example, If I index a value on page #5 out of document that has 20 pages (a multi-page PDF) and when I search/retrieve for that value, it takes me directly to view page #5 without scrolling the pages. The idea is to click on an index value on the left pane, the document viewer on the right pane brings to page #5 without doing a full text search.

  18. Split panes next to each other instead of one above other.

    Is it possible to have split panes next to each other instead of one above the other? With a separate viewer there is a better view of the webbaskets, entries, lists etc.
