When you select the tab and open QC Console, all
documents in the group or view are displayed.
•

Apply Settings to Multiple Document Type Groups
– When choosing the correct settings with which to
process your documents, you can now apply the
settings to multiple document type groups at the
same time.

•

Password Cracking for Microsoft Excel Worksheets
– During processing of a Microsoft Excel workbook we
will automatically attempt to remove the worksheet
protection, including password protection, at the
worksheet level if you have selected the Remove
worksheet level protection option in the Excel
render settings (under Worksheet options). By
selecting this option we will utilize a brute force
functionality that will iterate through up to 196,000
times to attempt to crack the password on the
worksheet.

New Features of Discovery Cracker
Version 5.4.0
•

Searchable PDF – We are pleased to announce that
you now have the option to render documents to the
searchable PDF format.
At this time, Discovery Cracker does not provide the
ability to produce a searchable PDF from a
nonsearchable document such as an image file or a
nonsearchable PDF.
In addition, PDF source files will not be rendered to a
PDF format; they will simply be copied to the
appropriate folder during processing. This creates a
limitation regarding the ability to change the
attributes of a source PDF file. For example, you will
not be able to take a color PDF and make it black and
white, nor will you be able to change the DPI.

•

•

Monitor Workflow Manager Activity – In past
versions of Discovery Cracker you had to go to the
Workflow Manager computer to see what was
happening on your DC Engines. Or you could go to
each DC Engine computer and see what was going on.
Now, from Discovery Cracker Console you can see
what item is being processed by which DC Engine.
Open Discovery Cracker Console. On the menu bar
select Tools, then select Monitor Workflow Manager
Activity. You can choose to display a snapshot of
documents being processed per DC Engine computer
or per job. You can manually refresh the snapshot or
select to have the snapshot refreshed automatically at
regular intervals.
QC Console is Available at the Job Level – With
Discovery Cracker 5.4.0 when you select a job in the
navigation pane, the QC Console tab is available.

Please note that this can make processing of
Microsoft Excel spreadsheets take longer than
expected if you have quite a few that are worksheet
password protected. However, on those Microsoft
Excel documents that do not have a password
protection at the worksheet level, the processing will
not be impeded by this process.
•

Import Keywords into a View – You can now import
a list of keywords into a view when using the Is In or
Is Not In operators. This operator is not available for
all fields. Additional functionality will be added to
Discovery Cracker in future releases to work with the
other operators. To use this feature, you must first
create a .txt file containing a single list of values, with
each value on a separate line.

•

Field Selection During Export – In previous versions
of Discovery Cracker you could only choose a field
once during an export. You can now select the same
field multiple times. This is helpful if you need a
different formatting for a particular field or if you
need the same data represented in a field with two
different names, such as for the date and time.

•

Manual Printing – You can now manually print
documents to TIFF and text or to PDF with only

CT Summation Discovery Cracker | Readme 5.4.0

Discovery Cracker Console installed on your
computer.
•

Adobe Acrobat 9 support – Discovery Cracker now
supports the use of Adobe Acrobat 9. You may use
Adobe Acrobat version 7, 8, and 9. We have removed
the support for using Adobe Acrobat version 6. Please
note that Discovery Cracker requires that you install
either the Standard or Professional editions of Adobe
Acrobat. Discovery Cracker does not work with
Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Upgrade Instructions and Notes
For customers currently using Discovery Cracker 5.3.1:
1.

Close all programs and all Discovery Cracker
components on all Discovery Cracker 5
computers.

2.

Restart all Discovery Cracker computers before
upgrading.

3.

Run Discovery Cracker Update 5.4.0.x.exe on
each computer in the following order:
a. Workflow Manager computer
b. DC Engine computer
c. Discovery Cracker Console computer
d. DC Detective computer

4.

After completing the upgrade, restart your
computers.

It is important to perform the upgrade on ALL of your
computers before attempting to start the individual
components.
If you are using a series 5 version of the software, but not
the 5.3.1 version, please contact Discovery Cracker
Product Support for assistance in obtaining the necessary
updates.
Upgrading and Enhancements – On upgrade to 5.3 and
subsequently to 5.3.1 some new enhancement upgrades
could not be automated. These two enhancements are
the Save Errors for the project error database table and
the ability to turn off the indexing that is done during
processing. If you have been upgrading Discovery Cracker
from prior to 5.3, please contact Product Support for
assistance in updating your program to be able to use
these two functions.
Upgrading with SQL Server Express – SQL Server Express
has a 4 gigabyte per database limitation. If you have been
using this version of SQL Server and you have a project

Important Instructions Not Provided
Elsewhere
Following are topics that were not ready in time to include
in the Discovery Cracker Environment Setup and Installation
Guide or User Guide for version 5.4:
WinZip 12 instructions – If you use WinZip 12 as your
archive application, when you process archived
(compressed) files, Windows Explorer will remain open
during processing.
To prevent this from happening, you need to perform the
following steps on each DC Engine computer on which
WinZip 12 is installed.
1.
2.
3.

Create a test zip file.
Open the file in WinZip.
On the Options menu, make sure that Save
Settings on Exit is checked.

Select the Extract icon.

Software Constraints
As with any software, Discovery Cracker has limitations
that should be noted for the awareness of our customers.
Most of these limitations have already been noted in the
User Guide. However, listed below are limitations that are
not otherwise noted.
These limitations are:

5.

In the Extract dialog box, clear the Open
Explorer window check box.

Microsoft Office Project 2007 – Files created with
Microsoft Office Project 2007 are not yet supported.
Exports – When running exports you can only run one
type of export at a time in a given project. However, you
can run multiple exports of different types simultaneously.
Working from a Mapped Drive – Discovery Cracker does
not allow you to work from a mapped drive. Everything
must be accessible using a UNC path, including files used
for the import feature.
Job Scheduling – If you create a job to run following the
completion of another job within the same project and
group, but the second job depends on the first job for
count of items, the second job may not perform the
requested action on all items.

6.

Select Extract.

PDF Render Settings – PDF render settings do not include
the Page size setting or the Orientation setting, as
indicated on pages 231 and 233 of the User Guide.
You control orientation and page size settings for
rendering to TIFF and PDF from settings available on the
User-Selected Application tab. To find those settings,
you can search for the keywords “orientation” and “page
size” in Appendix A, “Task Settings,” of the User Guide.

Documentation
The following documents are installed in the
Documentation folder in the Discovery Cracker program
folder. You can access them from the Start menu:
Start>Programs or All Programs>Discovery
Cracker>Documentation.
• Environment Setup and Installation Guide for
Discovery Cracker 5.4
• Field List for Discovery Cracker 5.4
• Readme for Discovery Cracker 5.4.0
• Supported File Types for Discovery Cracker 5.4
• User Guide for DC Detective 5.4
• User Guide for Discovery Cracker 5.4

For example, if you create a group to process data in a
folder and then create a job to perform the first three
actions (Initial Spin Through, File Spin Through, and
Extract Metadata) on that group, and immediately create
a job to perform the Render action and have the second
job follow the first, the job for Render will run after the
first job as requested, but because there were no items for
it to perform the action on at the time it was created, no
documents are rendered.
Processing Microsoft Access Databases - Internal
metadata is not collected on Microsoft Access files.
Because of limitations with the handling of Access files, we
are unable to extract much of the internal metadata;
however, we extract the body text (table information)
from the databases.

If you remove access to all projects in a DC
Detective access role, the user assigned this
role still has access to all projects after
logging into DC Detective.
When using the advanced search function,
Clear Search is not working properly.
The font size chosen during endorsement of
the TIFF images is not being saved.
Discovery Cracker will endorse everything
using an 8.25 font.
The time stamp in the Data Ddelimited
Text File Export and CT Summation DII
Export changes depending on which time
zone the DC Engine computer that is
performing the export job is set to.
Within the Ringtail Export if you import
saved fields, they are not being saved to the
list of fields to populate in the export_extras
table.
When exporting to a Ringtail database, if the
data contains a large body field, an error
message (“Query too complex") occurs at
the job level and the export fails.
When using custom fields on Class 2 and
Class 3 of the CT Summation DII Export,
the @C token is not present for any record
that does not have a value in Discovery
Cracker’s database.

This causes a problem in the iBlaze,
Enterprise, and CaseVantage applications
because they are designed to inherit the
value for any @C token into the next record
unless a "change value" @C token is put into
the current record.
For example, take the field "Importance". If
you choose to add this as a custom field and
if email record 1 contains a value of "@C
Importance High" but for email record 2
there is nothing available, your export will
not contain an "@C Importance" token in
email record 2. When you import this file
into any of the three aforementioned

Now anytime you select a
custom field, this token will
appear on every record. If
the record does not have a
value for the token, it will be
blank to reset the token

value from email record 1 will be inherited

When selecting one volume to export out of
many volume sessions with the same prefix,
you get the following error message: "Failed
to enable constraints. One or more rows
contain values violating non-null, unique, or
foreign-key constraints."
If you create a job to run following the
completion of another job within the same
project and later decide to run the job
immediately, the changes are not being
properly saved and the job will never run.
The job continues to show a status of
Scheduled in the navigation pane and the
Jobs tab.
When setting up your Bates number session,
if you do not provide enough numbering
digits for your data set, the postprocessing
job will go into a paused state immediately.

When using the deduplication functionality,
some attachments are getting rendered
even though they are duplicates of
previously processed documents.
If your database is SQL Server 2005
Enterprise Edition and reindexing starts
while the Initial Spin Through action is
being performed on a large container item
(Folder, PST, NSF), all the existing items are
deleted from the Items table and Initial

For Page Number Digits,
we have updated the default
number of digits to 6, which
should prevent most of the
problems. However, when
setting Document Number
Digits, Child Number
Digits, and Page Number
Digits, you must be sure to
provide enough digits for the
data set you will be
processing.
This issue has been resolved.

You can now control

If you select the option to create a folder
and do not provide a name for the folder,
New Folder will be provided for the name.
However, if you select the refresh button
before adding a project to the folder, New
Folder will be removed from the Discovery

If you import job settings from another
project for a CT Summation DII Export job,
the save location is from the other project,
not the one you are in. In one circumstance
this had a truncation problem on the relative

When creating jobs for postprocessing,
Discovery Cracker allows you to create
multiple jobs within the same project, but if
the jobs are run at the same time, only the
job that gets to the Workflow Manager first
is able to run through completion. Any
subsequent job goes into a not created state
and can never be run. Even pausing and
restarting the job does not solve the
problem.
The Bates number padding for the document
counter is not retained when the Include
Bates number prefix in the file name
option is cleared (when creating a volume
session).
For example, if you set the Document
Number Digits to 4 and the Page Number
Digits to 6 (when creating a Bates number
session) and then you process 10
documents, each resulting TIFF image
should have a name something like
0001.000001 or 0010.000003. Instead, the

Description

Workaround

Project Creation

If a project filter is created with the option
"Consider family relationships. Examine all
documents..." and an attachment meets the
criteria, the item that meets the criteria will
loop indefintiely.

QC

If a rendered color TIFF image has LZW
compression, you will receive an error in QC
Console when you attempt to view the
image using the image viewer. The error
message is: "File may be locked by system or
does not exist. LEAD error: The LZW
capabilities are locked".

QC

If you use the Advanced Search feature in
QC Console, the Clear button at the bottom
of the Advanced Search panel does not
clear the panel from displaying the last
criteria you searched for.

QC

QC Sessions are not being closed out when
multiple people are in the same session.

QC

If you attempt to select multiple records and
one of the records that are included in your
selection group is locked by another process,
only the first or the last record will be
selected.
When using the arrow keys to navigate up
and down through the dataset, the cursor
will sometimes skip records.
The Advance Search in the QC screen is not
filtering data as it should.

Create a view with the
option "Consider family
relationships. Examine all
documents...". Enter QC
Console and manually
deactivate the item.
Discovery Cracker does not
produce TIFF images with
LZW compression during
normal rendering. However,
manual printing using the
DOX printers can cause this
incorrect compression of the
TIFF image. It is advised to
either render your
documents in Black and
White, or convert the
images to RGB Packbits
compression before
importing into Discovery
Cracker.
The Clear button on the
Advanced Search panel
clears the search results in
the Data Panel, not the
search criteria in the
Advanced Search panel.
You can change the criteria
by entering new values.
If this occurs, please contact
Product Support to report
the issue. To resolve the
issue, please close the DC
Console, QC Server, and
Workflow Manager to
release the session. Once
you reopen the components
and join the existing session,
you should be able to close
the session.
Check Worfkflow Manager
to see what item is currently
being used and do not
include locked items in your
selection grouping.

Affected Process

Description

Rendering

Discovery Cracker does not process the
correct number of pages if the setting
"Number Slides From" in PowerPoint is set
to start with “0".

Rendering

When rendering EML files with Outlook,
some of the e-mail header is missing.

Rendering

If an archive file contains documents with
foreign language characters in the file name
and the archive file is rendered with an OSassociated application, the corresponding
text file of the list of files inside the archive
does not contain the foreign language
characters.

Reports

If you choose the setting to render
PowerPoint slides to a handout format
rather than a slide format, you have the
option to select the number of slides per
page in the handout. This setting is not
currently working and will only render 6
slides per page regardless of your chosen
settings.
The System Disk Usage Report is displaying
the disk usage of the local computer upon
which the report was run. When you are in
Discovery Cracker Console on one computer
and run the System Disk Usage Report for
a selected DC Engine computer, the report
displays the system disk information of your
Discovery Cracker Console computer.
The Problem Items report does not display
the full error message.

The report titled Summary Report of File
Counts by Status displays the previous
method of maintaining status which was to
use the individual tasks that an item would
go through during processing.

Workaround
If the settings are changed
to start from "1" in the
PowerPoint file, then
Discovery Cracker is able to
process the correct number
of pages.
If you change the rendering
application to the Discovery
Cracker Viewer, the entire
file header is included on the
TIFF image, but the section
will be shaded gray.
No known workaround at
this time.
You should make sure that
your archive application is
the most recent version to
handle creating the text file
correctly.

User Interface

When selecting the rendering options for
Excel, you should not be allowed to select
both the Wrap text and the Shrink to fit
options at the same time. These two options
are mutually exclusive of one another.

User Interface

When creating a new document type group,
if you select the Tab key before entering a
document type group name, a red
exclamation warning will appear indicating
that you are missing the entry in this field.
Once this warning has been displayed, you
cannot continue with the process to add a
new document type group without first
closing and reopening the dialog box.
Cannot remove an image that was added
(without being saved) in the Add a
Reference File dialog box. Once it is added,
the image cannot be removed from within
the application.
When working with the Help screen open, if
you select a topic and browse down through
that topic, then you try to select any other
object on the Discovery Cracker Console,
the Help screen will reset itself back to the
Table of Contents.
Intermittently, when you select the refresh
button, all projects, groups, views, and jobs
disappear from the navigation pane.
If you mark a project as inactive, remove the
database from SQL Server, and then
reactivate the project in DC Console, you are
not warned that the database connection is
missing. From all appearances you can
create groups, views, or jobs. However, when
you attempt to do so, the hourglass appears
and never goes away.
If you detach a project database without
first marking a project as inactive in
Discovery Cracker Console, and then try to
open Discovery Cracker Console, you will
receive an error message: "Object reference
not set to an instance of an object."
Changing the name of a project causes an
error message. If you change the name of a
project after it has been created, an error
message will be displayed when you attempt
to save the changes.
If you attempt to create a project with
brackets [] in the project name, you will
receive an error message that states: SQL

Only select one of these
options. If the other option
is needed, first clear the
previously chosen option
before selecting the other
option.
Make sure to populate the
fields of the document type
group creation dialog box as
they appear on the screen.

Views

Description
2005 backward compatibility components
have not been installed.
When you export job settings from a project
that has a period in the project name and
then attempt to create a new job within any
project, you get the following error message:
“Index was outside the bounds of the array.”

Intermittently, when you select the Refresh
button, the project listings in the navigation
pane disappear.
When creating a Dynamic view, if a job is
running in the same project, the view is not
created and the Workflow Manager shuts
down.

Views

When creating a view that contains criteria
with an apostrophe, the view generates an
error.

Views

Dynamic views using the full-text search
functionality do not produce the same
results as the same view created as static.

Workflow
Manager

Intermittently, tasks are not sent to the DC
Engines and the following error is logged to
the manager database: "The Counter layout
for the Category specified is invalid."

Workaround

If you need to export your
job settings, do not use
periods in your project
names. If you receive this
error, delete any previously
exported job settings.
To do so, go to the JOBS
folder of the Reference Files
directory. Delete any .jex
files with that project name.
If this occurs, close
Discovery Cracker Console
and reopen it.
A dynamic view cannot be
created on a project when a
job is running. Create the
view before the job is run or
after it is complete.
Do not include apostrophes
in the criteria of a view
unless you have enabled
full-text indexing and use
the Phrase option when
creating the view criteria.
This is due to the indexing
that occurs with full-text
indexing. It is recommended
that you do not create
dynamic views when using
the full-fext search
functionality.
