Test your CCMS Output Generator installation

Now that the IXIA CCMS Output Generator is installed, you can test it by generating a PDF file.

1. Start the IXIA CCMS Desktop.
2. Configure the CCMS Desktop to use the new CCMS Output Generator:
   1. From the Global Actions menu bar, click the Connection Information button.
   2. Enter the CCMS Output Generator information:
      • Hostname: Enter the name of the server hosting the CCMS Output Generator
      • Port: Enter the CCMS Output Generator port number (1500 by default)
      • Monitor Port: Enter the local port where output generation progress is sent. Unless specified otherwise by your CCMS administrator, enter 0
   3. Click Apply.
   4. Click OK.
3. Use Search to find the document to output.
   Make sure to use a map where everything is released. If the map or any children are locked, that might interfere with your test.
4. Right-click the document to output. Select Generate Output.
   The Generate Output dialog appears.
5. In the Output Format list, click Dita2Pdf.
6. Click Create.
   The output is generated and a ZIP file is returned. The PDF file is generated using the Apache FOP rendering engine and the styling of the default DITA Open Toolkit FOP transformation. To use your own styling plugins and another rendering engine, you need to configure the CCMS Output Generator.
