| dtSearch Publish
is an easy "point and click"
solution for publishing
documents on CD, DVD or
equivalent media. dtSearch
Publish can also mirror
an existing Web site on
CD/DVD. With the "Web Combo
Pack," dtSearch Publish
allows for publishing simultaneously
a wide range of documents
with advanced searching
on CD/DVD and the Internet/Intranet.
How dtSearch
Publish Setup Works
With
dtSearch Publish, a CD/DVD
wizard sets up a browser-based
user interface that runs
dtSearch Web from a Web
server (Apache) that the
wizard installs on the CD/DVD.
Creation of the CD/DVD master
— including dtSearch
Web, the document collection,
and associated search indexes
— is "point and click"
easy, requiring absolutely
no programming. Documents
can be in multiple formats:
HTML, PDF, XML, word processor,
database, spreadsheet, ZIP,
Unicode, etc.
What dtSearch
Publish Looks Like to the
CD/DVD User
For
the end-user, accessing
the resulting CD/DVD containing
dtSearch Web and the document
set involves simply inserting
the CD/DVD into a drive.
The only software that the
end-user needs to access
the CD/DVD is a Web browser.
And the installation process
itself installs absolutely
nothing on the user’s
hard drive!
When
the user does a search,
the user's browser sends
a request to the CD/DVD
just like any other Web
server. The CD/DVD displays
retrieved documents with
multiple browser-based hit
and file navigation options,
just like dtSearch Web:
| • |
PDF and HTML support includes highlighted
hits as well as display
of embedded images
and links. |
| • |
XML support includes hit-highlighted
indexed searching
using the full range
of dtSearch features
across an entire XML
database, or limited
to a highly specific
combination of fields
or sub-fields. |
| • |
Support for other database,
word processor, spreadsheet,
and ZIP file formats
includes "on-the-fly"
conversion to HTML,
with highlighted hits. |
| • |
Supports searching of OCR'ed
files in PDF format,
including full images
with "hidden text"
hit highlighting. |
| See dtSearch Web for more information. |
"Web Combo
Pack" Option
dtSearch
Publish is a stand-alone
solution for publishing
documents on CD/DVD. dtSearch
Web runs on an Internet/Intranet
site. The "Web Combo Pack"
offers both dtSearch Publish
and dtSearch Web, allowing
for quick publication of
the same document collection
on the Internet/Intranet
and on CD/DVD.
Technical Note
Both
dtSearch Publish and dtSearch
Web include setup wizards,
making them easy for non-programmers
to use. For programmers,
the dtSearch Text Retrieval
Engine also includes sample
source code to these products,
as well as access to the
full dtSearch Engine’s
programming APIs. See dtSearch Engine for information.
