Stellent Content Server User Guide
Stellent Content Management
U
SERS
Stellent Content Server is designed for two types of users:
❖
Consumers
These are people who need to find, view, and print files from the content server
repository. They do not have permission to create, modify, or delete files.
❖
Contributors
These are people who need to create and revise files in the content server repository.
They also have permission to find, view, and print files.
In many Stellent Content Server systems, the majority of users are consumers.
To safeguard the integrity of files in the system, contributors need a user name and
password to check content items in to and out of the content server repository.
Users who have full administrative permission are referred to as system administrators.
Your organization may also assign limited administrative permission to certain users, such
as the ability to set up user logins and create workflow templates. These users are referred
to as subadministrators.

ODULES
Your content server system may include one or more conversion modules, which convert
native files to web-viewable file formats. Most conversions take place automatically as
soon as you check in a file.
The web-viewable formats of a file depend on the original file format of the content item
and the conversion modules that are installed. For example, your system could be set up to
convert Microsoft Word documents to the PDF format using the PDF Converter module,
and to the HTML format using the Dynamic Converter module.
Some file formats cannot be converted, or your system administrator may configure the
system to “pass through” certain types of documents without conversion. For example,
a compressed zip file cannot be converted to a web-viewable format. In these cases, a
copy of the native file is stored in the repository for web-viewable files.
