Alfresco Comunity 7 .zip haven't alfresco-pdf-renderer into?

Hello,

I am starting with installation alfresco-content-services-community-distribution-7.0.0 from .zip.

I follow instruction on the page https://docs.alfresco.com/content-services/6.2/install/zip/

and I cann't find alfresco-pdf-renderer into .zip distribution.

Can You suggest some direction about this.

I read about Install Transform Service on the page https://docs.alfresco.com/transform-service/latest/install/#install-with-zip but prerequisits are the same include alfresco-pdf-renderer.

This is from installation tutorial.

In a non-containerized environment you need to install the following software before installing Transform Services:

LibreOffice: see Install LibreOffice
ImageMagick: see Install ImageMagick
alfresco-pdf-renderer: see Install alfresco-pdf renderer
Exiftool: see Install Exiftool

Thanks in advanced

From legacy tansformation was deprecated in previous version and now removed from acs7. So for local installation also you have to use the transformation service. Just installing the components aren't enough. Properties have also change in new version.

If you are installing acs using distribution package and planning to use transformations then use transformation service.

There are two options:

1- Launch transformation service (tranform-core-aio + activemq docker images) on docker and keep the host and port accessible to your local installation. Use the following properties in local alfresco-global.properties

messaging.broker.url=tcp://localhost:61616
localTransform.core-aio.url=http://localhost:8090/
local.transform.service.enabled=true [True by default, Just for FYI here]
messaging.subsystem.autoStart=true [True by default, Just for FYI here]

e.g.:

version: "2"

services:        
    transform-core-aio:
        image: alfresco/alfresco-transform-core-aio:2.4.0       
        mem_limit: 1536m
        environment:
            JAVA_OPTS: " -XX:MinRAMPercentage=50 -XX:MaxRAMPercentage=80"
        ports:
            - 8090:8090
            
    activemq:
        image: alfresco/alfresco-activemq:5.16.1
        mem_limit: 1g
        ports:
            - 8161:8161 # Web Console
            - 5672:5672 # AMQP
            - 61616:61616 # OpenWire
            - 61613:61613 # STOMP

2- Install the activemq, imagemagick, libreoffice, pdf renderer and tranform all in one boot project jar file and start transform-core-aio boot app with following params:

java -DPDFRENDERER_EXE="<alfresco-pdf-renderer_installation_dir>/alfresco-pdf-renderer"
-DLIBREOFFICE_HOME="<libreoffice_installation_dir>"
-DIMAGEMAGICK_ROOT="<imagemagick_installation_dir>"
-DIMAGEMAGICK_DYN="<imagemagick_installation_dir>/lib"
-DIMAGEMAGICK_EXE="<imagemagick_installation_dir>/bin/convert"
-DACTIVEMQ_URL=failover:(tcp://server:61616)?timeout=3000
-jar alfresco-transform-core-aio-boot-x.y.z.jar

example:

java -DPDFRENDERER_EXE="/usr/local/acs70ga-community/alfresco-pdf-renderer/alfresco-pdf-renderer" 
 -DLIBREOFFICE_HOME="/usr/local/acs70ga-community/libreoffice" 
 -DIMAGEMAGICK_ROOT="/usr/local/acs70ga-community/imagemagick" 
 -DIMAGEMAGICK_DYN="/usr/local/acs70ga-community/imagemagick" 
 -DIMAGEMAGICK_EXE="/usr/local/acs70ga-community/imagemagick/convert" 
 -DACTIVEMQ_URL=failover:(tcp://localhost:61616)?timeout=3000 
 -jar alfresco-transform-core-aio-boot-2.4.0.jar

Windows 10 example:
java -DPDFRENDERER_EXE="c:\\acs70ga-community\\alfresco-pdf-renderer\\alfresco-pdf-renderer.exe" 
-DLIBREOFFICE_HOME="c:\\acs70ga-community\\libreoffice" 
-DIMAGEMAGICK_ROOT="c:\\acs70ga-community\\imagemagick" 
-DIMAGEMAGICK_DYN="c:\\acs70ga-community\\imagemagick" 
-DIMAGEMAGICK_EXE="c:\\acs70ga-community\\imagemagick\\convert.exe" 
-DACTIVEMQ_URL=failover:(tcp://localhost:61616)?timeout=3000 
-jar alfresco-transform-core-aio-boot-2.4.0.jar

Global properties:

messaging.broker.url=tcp://localhost:61616
localTransform.core-aio.url=http://localhost:8090/
local.transform.service.enabled=true [True by default, Just for FYI here]
messaging.subsystem.autoStart=true [True by default, Just for FYI here]
