The ARCHDOC.INI file located in \ELSA\SYSTEM or equivalent specifies the file types that the Drawing Manager should deal with.

 

This is what the file looks like in the original:

 

[DOCTYPES]

Adobe Acrobat=pdf

Microsoft Word=doc

Internet browser=htm|html|asp

Microsoft Excel=xls

 

For example, if you want to supplement with TXT files, it will be like this:

 

[DOCTYPES]

Adobe Acrobat=pdf

Microsoft Word=doc

Internet browser=htm|html|asp

Microsoft Excel=xls

Text files=txt

 

The descriptive text to the left of the equals sign is just an identification. The exact wording is therefore irrelevant.

 

Please note that you can supply multiple file types for one and the same program on one and the same line, as for example for "Internet browser" in the examples above. When doing so, the specified file types should be separated by vertical bars ("|").

 

Please also note that this configuration is "global" in nature, meaning that it affects all projects and all users equally.
