Documents can be edited easily using native applications on your Microsoft® Windows® workstation. This requires the Content Director application installed on your local computer.
Note
It's possible to edit documents without the Content Director by manually checking-out, downloading, editing, and checking-in the documents. For more information, see Section 16, “Checking Out/Checking In Documents”.
The Content Central Office Integration application can be installed on any workstation containing Microsoft® Office® to further assist in the document capture and editing process within applications like Word®, Excel®, and Outlook®.
Note
Both Content Director and Content Central Office Integration are client-side applications, and each must be installed on user workstations where their functionality is desired.
The Content Director is responsible for directing documents and other content between the Content Central server and your local computer.
The installation package for the Content Director application can be accessed from the Options area by selecting the 
button on the main menu followed by selecting the 
icon for Downloads and Installers.
Note
The Content Director application runs on only the Microsoft® Windows® platform.
Select Download Content Central Content Director to download and/or begin the installation package. Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
The installation package will automatically configure your computer to launch the Content Director each time your computer is started. This default behavior can be changed in the settings dialog.
You can access the settings of the Content Director by locating the icon in the system tray of your Windows® application bar and right-clicking it followed by selecting the menu item.
The Content Director Settings Dialog
The Local Document Folder points to a location on your local computer that will temporarily store documents while they are being edited. When an edited document has been uploaded to the server, the Content Director will automatically remove it from this location.
The Port setting determines the local Windows® port that will be used for communication to and from the server.
You may select the checkbox labeled Do not show informational balloon tips if you do not wish to see notices of downloads and uploads. You may also choose whether the application will automatically Check for updates and Run at Windows startup.
When you have finished making changes, select the button to close the settings dialog.
