================================================ Notice to Autodesk Vault Customers ================================================ In a continuing effort to provide high quality products, Autodesk has released this Hotfix which addresses Vault 5 issues relating to the Autodesk Design Review 2007 and Autodesk DWF Viewer 7 releases. This README file highlights how to install this Hotfix, and other important information regarding this update. ================================================ CONTENTS ================================================ - Description of the issue - System Requirements - Known Issues - Warnings - Installation Instructions ================================================ Description of the issue: ================================================ This hotfix will only need to be installed if you plan to install Autodesk Design Review 2007 or Autodesk DWF Viewer 7. This hotfix will enable the Vault 5 user to view DWF files generated from Autodesk Design Reviewer 2007 from within the Vault Explorer interface. ================================================ System Requirements: ================================================ Autodesk Vault 5 or Autodesk Productstream 5 ================================================ KNOWN ISSUES: ================================================ * DWF output settings in Inventor are persistent per session of Inventor and will use the last known settings from that session of Inventor. Certain Vault operations (checkin, add files) will be slower depending on the custom DWF output settings if automatic DWF is turned on in the Vault addin. * DWF files generated using Inventor 11 DWF Extension can not be viewed using the prior versions of the viewers. This requires that the proper viewer must be installed to view files in the Vault when using the view option within Vault Explorer. * Vault 5 users who download Inventor 11 DWF Extension should also download and install the related hotfix from the Autodesk Knowledgebase (search for "TS1057378"). * Productstream/Vault installation will fail if installed from the \bin\acadfeui\vault\client\setup.exe location after Autodesk Design Review 2007 or Autodesk DWF Viewer 7 is installed. * Vault 5 will fail to install when attempting to install from the Productstream media browser after Autodesk DWF Viewer 7 is installed. To successfully install Vault, run \bin\acadfeui\vault\client\Vault.msi. * If you experience an error dialog with an Error 1904 while installing the hotfix, it is most likely because you installed Inventor 11 DWF Extension to a different directory than Inventor 11 was orginally installed. Uninstalling and re-installing Vault or Productstream will fix the installation error. ================================================ Warnings: ================================================ This hotfix should only be applied to systems with the Vault Explorer (R5) and Autodesk Design Review 2007 or Autodesk DWF Viewer 7 installed. This is the only issue for which this hotfix has been created to address. ================================================ Files Affected: ================================================ Connectivity.Explorer.Document.dll EDMDwfWrapper.dll DWFMergerUtil.dll ================================================ Update Verification: ================================================ 1.
