Renaming a Document Class

You can rename a document class on the Batch class tree view tab, the Document class tree view tab, or the Document Class Properties window. When renaming a document class, be aware of the following:

  • New document class names go into effect when you republish the batch class associated with them.

  • After you rename a document class, any existing batches created under the original document class name retain their references to the original name.

  • Duplicate document class names are not allowed.

  • If a renamed document class uses an export connector referring to the document class name, you must update each document class name reference in the connector.
