PrizmDoc v13.1 - Updated
Get Started!

Welcome to PrizmDoc - let's get started!

This topic walks you through the steps you need to get PrizmDoc installed, configured, and running. You will also be able to integrate a basic viewer into your web app.

Recommendation: The easiest way to get up and running for an evaluation is to select the Accusoft Cloud-Hosted evaluation license. You can always start with Accusoft Cloud-Hosted for the evaluation and then move to Self-Hosted later.

It's important to understand the basic structure of PrizmDoc when it's embedded in your web app. PrizmDoc contains 3 essential pieces:

  1. PrizmDoc Server - Self-Hosted or Accusoft Cloud-Hosted - the back-end conversion engine
  2. PrizmDoc Application Services (PAS) - the connection point between the Viewer and the Server
  3. PrizmDoc Viewer - the HTML viewer component
