Settings for downloading the Manager web application
To enable the download of larger files, the Manager web application requires a directory in which the download can be made available to the user. This effects reports, for example, which are generated by the application and saved as PDF by the user. You can edit the settings in the File download pane of the Manager Web Configuration Editor.
