CopySafe Web Command Line & Server Side DLL
The CopySafe Web
encryption software can be operated from the Desktop as a
normal Windows application to import and encrypt images
singularly or in batches by multiple selections or by folder. Or
it can be used in command line mode along with other applications and scripts. It
can also be installed on a web server and integrated with website scripts to process images as they are uploaded by site
members.
Server Side & Command Line Operation
The CopySafe Web Converter can be operated by command-line and
server side DLLs to provide online integration with any website portal running on a Windows server.
This enables your users
to upload images and have them encrypted for
immediate use within your copy-protected web pages, as used in
the ArtistScope DRM solution.
Installation
Copy the "CopySafe" folder to your computer. If using a server
environment, it is recommended to install at C:\Copysafe. The command
line converter (CMD) uses ProDefaults.dat for default settings
such as the watermark image to use, etc., if those options are
required.
First run
Before running CMD in command line mode, you need to set the ProDefaults.dat file for your default settings.
1. Run the Windows GIU by double-clicking on ArtistScope.jar
2. Add an image
3. Highlight the image and click the Configure button
4. Run through the wizard for Targeted Link
5. Set Watermark for Mac and Linux only
6. Set watermark image (watermark.gif in the same folder as
ArtistScope.jar)
7. Click Finish
8. With the image still highlighted, click on the Protect
button
9. Select the output folder and click Open
10. The converter will save all new files to that location
11. Close the converter GUI and select YES to "Save new
settings"
The ProDefaults.dat now contains your default settings.
Command Line Operation
CopySafe Web CMD is designed for high-end users, those
encrypting images in volume for deployment on the fly. The CMD
converter will encrypt single images or batches of images
nominated by folder. The recommended parameters to use are:
• Targeted Link as nominated display style
• Watermark image to use
• Background and text colors
• Border size, if required
The parameters to use in the command line:
• i <input folder> or -f <input file>
• o <output folder>
• s <settings file> (optional)
• v <viewer folder>
If no settings file is nominated, the converter will use its
inbuilt defaults. The viewer folder must be present to provide
some of the resources that are delivered in the final output.
For example:
For batch conversion by folder using ProDefaults.dat settings:
java -jar ArtistScope.jar -i c:\Copysafe\in -o c:\Copysafe\out
-v c:\Copysafe\Viewer -s c:\Copysafe\ProDefaults.dat
For single file conversion using ProDefaults.dat settings:
java -jar ArtistScope.jar -f c:\Copysafe\in\myimage.jpg -o
c:\Copysafe\out -v c:\Copysafe\Viewer -s c:\Copysafe\ProDefaults.dat
Server Side DLL Interface For Windows The CopySafe Web Converter is a pure Java application that can run on any platform. For Windows servers, a ready-made DLL interface is available
to enable users to upload images from a web page for automatic
processing by the converter server-side. ArtistScope can provide
a system DLL to provide an interface between website pages and
the Converter installed to the computer running as a server.
- Upload and encrypt GIF, JPG and PNG images
- Convert to encrypted images for the most secure copy
protection
- Create new web pages for the images and add/edit copy
from a web page
The only requirement is .NET Framework 4 for support on:
- Windows Server 2003
- Windows Server 2008 R2
- Windows 7 Ultimate and higher

about the web service DLL
The management of access rights to view a web page comes
under "DRM" and more information on this topic can
be seen in
the section for
ArtistScope DRM. However the Enterprise DRM solution
includes a lot more than web page administration and as each
web project does have different requirements, it is best to
contact ArtistScope by email for
further discussion and consultation.
