Configuring Import types for Image Mime types

Some image mime types may require to be a file-based import and some require a stream-based import, other types can be either. By default the system uses a stream-based import but the InDesignConfig.xml file contains configuration to determine which image mime types should be processed using a file-based import routine.

<InDesignConfig 

 LinkPing="10000" 

 ArchivePDFVariantName="PDF_[Press quality]" 

 PrintPDFName="[Press quality]" 

 PageCompleteWorkstate="Page Closed" 

 PrintQueueName="PDF file" 

 PrintSinglePages="false" 

 port="5679" 

 ColourForMissingAdverts="16711935" 

 SendToNewsroomFolderPath="/Wires" 

 AutoMarkNonEmptyTextBoxes="true" 

 KeepAlivePing="120000" 

 ThumbnailHeight="96.0"> 

 <ImageFileMimeTypes> 

         <ImageFileMimeType>image/pdf

         </ImageFileMimeType> 

 </ImageFileMimeTypes> 

</InDesignConfig> 

The file extension types listed between the <ImageFileMimeType> </ImageFileMimeType> tags determine which image types are processed by the file-based routines. PDF files need to be configured for this option.
