Upload a viewable rendition

A viewable rendition is the file you see and annotate on in the Viewer. Vodori creates a viewable PDF rendition by default for file types that are not viewable in a browser, such as Microsoft Word and PowerPoint.
The viewable rendition is an identical or near-identical representation of the originally imported source file. However, in some rare cases where Vodori cannot generate a viewable rendition, or you prefer to create one yourself, you may upload your own.

You may choose to upload your viewable rendition for the following reasons:

1. The file you uploaded in Vodori is an unsupported file type that does not natively generate a viewable rendition.
2. The viewable rendition generated by Vodori does not look accurate.
3. The file you uploaded is too large (over 100MB) for Vodori to generate a viewable rendition. 
   
   

Upload or replace a rendition 

Users who have permissions to prepare the document can upload or replace a viewable rendition when the document is in Draft. Changing a document's viewable rendition is not possible for a document in a job where the file isn't able to be changed, such as "Modify Dates" or "Change Content Owner" review. For these job types, the document remains in an Approved state and isn't eligible for a rendition change.

1. Navigate to the Details screen and select the “Renditions” tab.
2. If a viewable rendition was previously generated by Vodori, it will be listed in this tab. The “Active” label indicates which viewable rendition is currently in use in the Viewer. There can only be one “Active” viewable rendition.
3. To add your own viewable rendition or replace the current one, select “Upload”. The rendition must be in PDF, PNG, or JPEG format.
4. Close the Details screen and return to the Viewer.

Revising a document and carrying over the previous file will also carry over the most recent active rendition. Adding a new viewable rendition will also update the document thumbnail shown in the Library.

Please note that this feature is available in Vodori R24 and later.
