Accessing the document file for viewing

To view the concatenated document file with AFP Workbench Viewer, you must access the file from a workstation that is running Microsoft Windows. You can use one of these methods to access the file:

  • Transfer the document file, in binary format, to the workstation where AFP Workbench Viewer is installed.
  • Mount your AIX or Windows directory on the workstation where AFP Workbench Viewer is installed.

    Note:
  1. You must have TCP/IP installed on both the AIX or Windows system and the workstation system where AFP Workbench Viewer is installed.
  2. To mount your AIX or Windows directory on the workstation where AFP Workbench Viewer is installed, you must have TCP/IP with Network File System (NFS) installed on both the AIX or Windows system and on the workstation system where AFP Workbench Viewer is installed.

    For more information about TCP/IP and NFS, see your TCP/IP documentation.
