When you view the content of a virtual document, the content opens in an editing application.
If the repository includes XML functionality, and if you view an XML-based virtual document, you can view both the parent, and descendants in a single, read-only file. If there is no content in a virtual document, then Virtual Document Manager (VDM) automatically displays the virtual document’s structure.
To view the content of a virtual document in read-only mode:
Navigate to the virtual document, and select it.
Select File > Open (Read Only).
Webtop does one of three things, depending on how your opening options are set in your virtual documents preferences, as explained in Set your virtual document preferences.
Do one of these:
If Webtop displays the document’s content, skip the rest of this procedure.
If Webtop prompts you to select between content, and structure, select Open the content of the document, and then click OK.
If Webtop displays the document’s structure through VDM (instead of displaying its content through an editing application), then select the document name within the header of VDM, and then select File > Open (Read Only).
