Integrating RasterServer with other applications by using PAR files
A PAR (parameter) file is a text file that RasterServer reads in order to execute instructions. The contents can be as simple as those shown below 

 [Work]
 Dpi=300
 Format=56
 InFile=C:\source_file_folder\input.dwg
 OutFile=C:\output_file_folder\output.pdf

This instructs RasterServer to create a 300 dpi PDF file named output.pdf from the source file input.dwg. One PAR file is required for each conversion.
   To integrate RasterServer into an automated workflow requires only that you have an application output the PAR files. For example, these can be scripted in VB or a similar scripting application.

The single installation of RasterServer continually polls the designated folder for PAR files to execute. PAR files can be run in conjunction with other methods of input such as entire folder processing.
