FotoWeb and Index Manager
When connected to FotoWare Index Manager, FotoWeb allows users to search an
archive based on full text indexing of file content and also basic attributes of
an object, such as file size, dates, color space, dimensions and more. This
functionality makes it easy for users to find exactly the files they need.
Workflow and production with FotoWeb servers and FTP
FotoWeb integrates well with production
environments. The system administrator can define destinations that let users
send files to folders locally on the FotoWeb server, to other servers in the
network or to FTP servers. A destination can also be configured to upload a file
to another FotoWeb server or to send files as attachments to an email. Each
destination has a list of users with permission to use the destination. A
destination can be configured to require input from the user before processing
the job, for example by entering new filenames, adding prefixes or captioning
the files before they are sent.
File upload
FotoWeb users can easily upload files to the FotoWeb
server view a web interface. The upload function uses the HTTP protocol, which
allows files to be uploaded even when networks are protected by strict
firewalls. Users of FotoStation can upload files to FotoWeb using the HTTP
upload function in the program, and can thus easily upload several files in a
single operation. Files uploaded to the server can be stored in a user’s private
upload folder or in any folder specified by the FotoWeb administrator.
Developers can also use the COM objects published by FotoWeb o access the user
database or modify the system configuration. FotoWeb also uses a SQL database
that can be accessed from virtually any other system.
