Perform this procedure to configure global document properties.
In the Configure Document Properties Utility, you can determine which print preferences/document
properties are supported throughout Output Manager. You can also select the
settings that are allowed for a particular property. These settings determine
what is available to the user in the dialogs where properties are configured.
When properties are disabled, those Document columns are also hidden in
the Documents grids.

In the Administration application, click
Configure Document Properties Utility.

Properties that are configured by selecting from a list
of options will display a drop-down arrow in the property cell. Click
the cell containing the arrow to display a dialog listing the available
options. You can select and clear the check boxes to determine the choices
that will be available when those properties are configured.
Note: Here is an example of how to configure the Resolution property so
users can only select a Resolution of 75, 100, or 150. First, expand the
Basic options category by clicking the down arrow next
to the category name. Next, select the check box next to the
Resolution property. This will make the property
available for configuration throughout Output Manager.
Finally, under the Resolution property, select the check
boxes next to the options you want to be available for selection. In this example,
you would select the check boxes next to 75, 100, and 150. Clear the check boxes
next to the remaining Resolution options.
