What supporting software do I need to install?
Required platform-level software (Hyper.Net Transformation Server)
Windows 2003 Server (R2) (Service Pack 2) (32 or 64 bit)
MS.Net 2.0 (optional 3.0 / 3.5)
ASP.Net 2.0 (optional 3.0 / 3.5)
IIS 6.x
SQL Server 2005/2008 Service Pack 2 (32 or 64 bit)
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Standard/ Enterprise SP1/SP2 (32 or 64 bit)
MOSS (on the same server as Hyper.Net or on 1..n dedicated MOSS servers!)
Required application-level software (Hyper.Net Transformation Server)
The transformation process requires backend access to Microsoft Office code to enable a wide array of advanced conversion and transformation functions. You will thus need to install Microsoft Office on the transformation server as follows:
Office 2007 Standard/Professional/Enterprise (32 or 64 bit)
Optional, if you need to convert Visio documents: Visio 2007 (32 or 64 bit)
Note: Coextant has more than 10 years experience in the control of Office applications remotely and in parallel on servers. The installation of client software like Office 2007 on a production server for the purpose of backend code access poses no specific dangers and has no administration impact. The software is not launched at the GUI level.
