Enhancement

1. Signup page

Earlier in the Document360 signup page, new users would provide a password on the initial form page. With this new update, the set password module has been moved to the post-activation stage. As a new user you would sign up for Document360, and an activation mail would be sent to the registered email address.

You can access the portal for the next 24 hours, but it is recommended that you activate your account. Post the 24 hours the activation link sent in the mail should be used and a password should be set to use the portal for the next 14 days. Also, the activation mail earlier had a 24-hour validity which has been removed.

2. JWT logout page

Earlier when JWT SSO reader logs out from KB, they would land on the regular Document360 identity logout page. With this new enhancement, any webpage can be set as a logout landing page. This option can be configured on the JWT setup page (**Settings→ Security→ Enterprise SSO → JWT→ JWT Basic configuration). Add the custom page link in the Logout URL(optional).

If the custom logout link is not provided, they would land on the new logout page designated for the JWT SSO readers.

a. Custom sizes for the Logo on the Cover page

Earlier users can upload their logo on the cover page, but the size was predefined. Now with this enhancement, users can select the three standard square sizes available Small(100px), Medium(150px), Large(200px), or choose a custom size in pixels. The canvas size can be between 20 and 300 pixels in both width and height.

b. Custom sizes for the watermark image

Earlier users can either add a watermark text (For ex. ‘Confidential’) or upload any image as a watermark, but the size was predefined. Now with this enhancement, users can select the three standard square sizes available Small(150px), Medium(200px), Large(250px) or choose a custom size in pixels. The canvas size can be between 20 and 350 pixels in both width and height.

c. Footer text

Along with the page numbers in the footer section, users can add custom footer text to the PDF document. The footer text does not have a character limit, the font size can be customized based on the requirement. As the footer space in the PDF page is dynamic based on the text, and font size, the text would not appear truncated in the final document.
