Saving a document specification
When you save a document specification, you have the choice
of saving it with user credentials stored in it or saving it without
the user credentials.
About this task
- When you are saving document specifications for sharing with other users, you might not want the credentials for a specific user entered. By saving the document specification without credentials, you are ensuring that the personal data of users is secured.
- You can save document specifications to your local computer, a remote server, HTTP, and HTTPS locations.
Procedure
You can either:
- Save the document specification with user credentials by clicking .
The document specification is saved and the user names and passwords for referenced files such as templates, data sources, and style sheets are stored.
- Save the document specification without user credentials by
clicking .
The document specification is saved and the user names and passwords for referenced files such as templates, data sources, and style sheets are not stored. Only the document specification is modified; the referenced files are not modified.
