We are testing CA-View/Web Viewer r14.0 and comparing it to Web Viewer r11.5. It compares well except that a few reports do show differently by the Web Viewer r14.0.
Light Gray bars/zones look nicer in the 11.5 version than with new Web Viewer r14.0 :
We know that 14.0 Web Viewer relies on Java Transformers where 11.5 Web Viewer used C Transformers, but we are unable to spot the settings causing the difference.
Release : 14.0
Web Viewer
Spool
For the Spool Transformers:
1) In the PDF generation section, this parameter was changed from the default:
shadeMode="Raster"
change it back to "Map"
2) Also the PDF generator has:
<filedeflist name="FdAfm">
<filedef directives="" location="DSN:EXP.AFP.FONTLIBB({0})" cache="job"/>
<filedef directives="" location="DSN:SYS1.FONT300({0})" cache="sys"/>
<filedef directives="" location="DSN:SYS1.FONTLIBB({0})" cache="sys"/>
</filedeflist>
Make it just:
<filedeflist name="FdAfm"/>
Set parameter DefaultMappingColorCmd="0.9 0.9 0.9 rg" as suggested and it solved all rendering issues on all PDF reports.
