Document Image Retrieval

Top  Previous  Next

The command line can be used to extract a document image from a library.  To do so, you must supply the –argget command line option, along with identifying options to indicate the library, document type, document ID, and image sub ID.  The –o option is used to specify where the document should be placed, typically with a "client:" prefix, like –o client:/tmp/myfile.pdf.

 

-arcget

-o filename

-arclib "libpath"

-arcdoctype "doctype"

-arcdocid "docid"

-arcsubid "subdoc ID"

-arclogin "userid/pswd"

 

Read access to the library is required.

 

When used in conjunction with the –p winpvw driver, a local view of the document is presented on the workstation running the UnForm client.

 

When used in conjunction with –arcget, the –arcsubid option supports two special suffixes, "-<" and "->", to return the first or last sub ID that matches the sub ID string.  For example, a value of "@UnForm->" would return the last sequential @UnForm sub ID in an auto-sequenced library.  Escape the suffix as "\->" to look for the literal value.
