On this page, you can find things to be aware of with the Digizuite™ Office Connector 2.0 (from now on OC).
Lock
A document is automatically locked when it is opened through Digizuite™ Media Manager 5 or OC and the Office Connector is opened. When a given document is locked, no other users can replace this document. Please note that a document doesn't get locked before OC is opened in the document. This means that if a user opens a document but doesn't open OC, other users might still lock the document. Furthermore, the document must not be saved locally before opening the Office Connector if the document is to be locked
A user won't be able to acquire the lock for an Office document if he/she isn't a "Content Creator".
Templates
If a Word template (".dotx") or a PowerPoint template (".potx") is opened through Digizuite™ Media Manager 5 or OC, a new document will be created based on the template. The document can therefore only be saved as a new document. If the document was created from a Word template, the new document will be saved as a plain Word document (".docx"). Likewise, if the document was created from a PowerPoint template, the new document will be saved as a plain PowerPoint document (".pptx"). This means that it is not possible to save the changes directly to the template itself.
