For example, in an asset maintenance scenario, service technicians can retrieve asset
 information from the ALM system directly from the plant floor plan or Process and
 Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID). From within the drawing the technician can initiate an 
 action, such as create a work order, or access other related asset documentation, 
 ultimately saving time, improving productivity and reducing errors.
 This round trip visual navigation allows for improved operational and process
 efficiency in downstream use cases by making information accessible from multiple
 environments and providing rich information context.

 Enhanced 20.1 AutoVue Document Print Services
 Partners can leverage AutoVue DPS to develop specialized solutions which can
 augment the efficiency of their customer’s printing and business processes. For
 example, an Asset Lifecycle Management system can be enhanced to automate the
 printing of work orders and all corresponding attachments for use during the execution of 
 maintenance and repair jobs. The new 20.1.0 releases of DPS are now available on Linux, 
 as well as the Windows platform, and include improved documentation, such as 
 performance tuning & high availability guides, deployment recommendations and sample 
 code, which serves as a development starting point.

 Text Extraction APIs Extended to Office Formats
 As part of its Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) strategy, AutoVue delivers a series of   
 Web Services which ensure a complete, open-standards, and flexible approach for 
 deploying AutoVue capabilities throughout an organization. In 20.1.0, AutoVue’s Text 
 Extraction Web Service APIs have been extended to include support for Office document 
 types. These extended APIs enable IT managers to leverage AutoVue as a single source 
 for all text extraction requirements. They can use one solution to extract and index text 
 from any file type, including Office, 2D and 3D CAD, and build an optimized search index 
 within applications, such as content management or product lifecycle management 
 solutions. End users can find complete and accurate information quickly, enabling them
 to make better decisions.

 New Desktop Deployment ActiveX Integration
 As part of the 20.1.0 major release cycle, a new Desktop Deployment ActiveX Integration 
 is available. This brand new ActiveX integration serves to replace the previous AutoVue 
 Desktop Version ActiveX offering and delivers improved stability and reliability with a 
 modern code base. It provides access to new AutoVue 20.x functionality, such as 3D 
 walkthrough, and enables Windows-centric development organizations to embed the 
 AutoVue user interface (UI) into other Windows applications to enable visualization 
 capabilities within other solutions.

 Simplify AutoVue Deployment and IT Administration
 IT managers will benefit from the many improvements for monitoring and troubleshooting 
 available in Release 20.1.0. Improvements include: integration for Oracle Enterprise 
 Manager; easier to understand and track logs; automatic packaging of logs for 
 troubleshooting purposes; and enterprise usage tracking with availability and user count. 
 Also new is an automatic upgrade from AutoVue 20.0.0 to 20.1.0, which saves time for IT 
 managers and ensures error free upgrades.
 Release 20.1.0 also includes official support for VMWare server, allowing AutoVue
 to fit well into a modern IT infrastructure where virtualization is used. IT managers
 can maintain fewer physical servers and enable faster server deployment.
 IT Managers will appreciate the suite of documentation that ships with 20.1.0 which
 helps to facilitate enterprise deployments. Examples include a new Viewing Configuration 
 Guide which describes how to optimize viewing of specific formats, an API Overview Guide
 which delivers a high level view of how to use key APIs, and a Planning Guide which 
 provides advice on architecture and capacity planning.

 Visualization Enhancements for Industry Customers

 This latest release delivers capabilities to meet the needs of industry customers.

 Improvements for Electronics and High Tech Customers
 Customers in the Electronics and High Tech space can take advantage the many new
 features which improve design and manufacturability reviews and enable an end to
 end design to manufacturing process. Productivity enhancing capabilities include:

 • Ability to measure minimum distance between entities across layers
 • Improved support for Bills of Material (BOM) with the ability to select Board Side  
    attributes
 • Support for Enhanced Display Modes (EDM)
 • Ability to modify global transparency for EDA files
 • Modify layer polarity for Gerber files

 These new capabilities allow manufacturing engineers to perform accurate 
 manufacturability reviews through better support for variants, overlays and polarity
 and improve collaboration on Work in Progress designs.

 Printing Improvements Support Paper-based Processes
 Customers in asset-intensive industries that need to print a variety of engineering,
 plant and maintenance documents during the course of maintenance operations can

 take advantage of new printing enhancements which include:
 • Excel printing improvements - support for print settings taken from Excel files
 • printing of markup notes
 • optimized spool size for documents with transparent logos and images
 • ability to skip blank pages & print in grayscale
 These enhancements improve the efficiency of printing operations and paper-based
 processes, and complete AutoVue’s collaboration story with markup note printing.

 Extended World Class Format Support & PDF Improvements:

 AutoVue 20.1.0 delivers world class support for new formats and includes fidelity
 improvements for several format types. Additionally, a number of architectural
 improvements have been made to how AutoVue processes PDF files which reduce
 network traffic and optimize network performance. Now with PDF files, operations
 such as zooming, which occur after the initial file load, are performed locally. This
 reduces server load and network traffic, improves performance and enables faster
 navigation of PDF files.
