Downloading a document
Download a document from Document Manager to your local computer.
You can download a document from Document Manager to your desktop. This function allows you to work with documents on your computer, instead of working within Document Manager. If document locking is enabled, you can avoid edit conflicts by locking the document that you download. Once you have finished working with the document from your computer, you will need to replace the document in Document Manager with the updated document on your computer. Use the Replace function to upload your updated document to Document Manager. See Replacing a document for more information.
- Click the document name.
- Click the More actions button and select Download from the drop-down menu.
- Navigate to the local directory where you want to save the document.
- Click Save to download the document to your machine, or click Cancel to stop the download and return to the document preview page.
The download function depends on how your browser is configured. In order to ensure your ability to download documents to your computer, you might need to configure the way your browser handles files. Refer to the Configuring the browser to work with documents topic for more information.
Troubleshooting downloading documents: If you have Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed on your Windows XP system, the download window might not appear correctly when executing the Document Manager download function. To correct this problem in your browser, click Tools > Internet Options > Security > Custom Level > Downloads, and then select Enable Automatic Prompting for file downloads.
