1. In Data Manager -- in Rrecord mode, Select the records to which you want to generate PDF Thumbnails

right click --> in the context menu choose GENERATE THUMBNAIL.

Hello Shreya,

First of all check the installation of Acrobate reader and ADOBE photoshop on MDM Server.

Then try this out:

In the MDM Console, right click on the Repository -> Properties -> PDF -> Allow invalid PDFs -> Yes.

Shreya-

Do you have Photoshop installed? Photoshop is used to generated the thumbnail images.

hi Shreya,

In Data manager:

go to Configuration options ---> Display --> Thumbnails rather than objects in the records pane option

you will have 2 options: yes and No

select YES.

Problem still arrise than:-

Go to record mode

In the Records pane, select the PDF record whose thumbnails you want to generate.then Right-click on one of the records and choose Generate Thumbnail from the context menu, or choose Objects -> Generate Thumbnail from the main menu.

Generating Thumbnails progress dialog will open to indicate the status as it generates the thumbnail for each of the PDFs.

hope this may help you...
