Overwrite server settings
The webPDF server defines a series of standard settings (global settings) for calling the web services. These are settings for the following areas:
These global server settings define the general behavior of the server when a web service operation is executed. This concerns, for example, settings such as whether the operation is allowed to be executed as part of the PDF document settings or how the result of the operation should be handled. However, these global settings also define how the server itself should behave.
These settings always apply to every web service call if they are not changed (overwritten) in the parameters via settings.
Example of the settings when calling the web service toolbox with the operation rotate:
{
"settings": {
"compress": {
"compressObjects": {
"objectStreamSize": 200
},
"compressProfile": "never"
},
"pdfa": {
"pdfaEditProfile": "removePdfaMetadata"
},
"signature": {
"signatureEditProfile": "adobeRestrictions"
}
},
"toolbox": [
{
"rotate": {
"degrees": 90,
"orientationDetectMode": "value",
"pageGroup": "all",
"pageOrientation": "any",
"pages": "1"
}
}
]
}
Changes to these settings only apply to the individual web service call and do not change the global settings of the server.
The settings are available in every web service call that performs an operation on a document.
