When you are scanning items for readers, we can now delivery images (single JPG, PDF, GIF, PNG, TIF or ZIP file) via Aeon itself, directly through the transaction.

1. Make sure you are on the Process tab of the request.

2.Then, click Upload Item on the right side of the ribbon. Choose the file you would like to upload.

3. At this point, depending on the size of the file, Aeon will hang for a while. Wait until the confirmation pop-up appears.

4. Use the email template HOU - ItemDelivered (on the Email tab of a transaction) to let the reader know their order is ready. The email will change the status to Order Delivered.

NOTE: Only one file may be delivered per transaction number (ZIP files would be a way to attach multiple images for one transaction)

Creating ZIP files for multiple JPG images 

You may need to deliver individual images in some instances, when a single JPG or PDF won't suffice. Here's a quick guide to creating a ZIP file in Windows.

  1. Select all of the images you would like to deliver via ZIP file
  2. Right-click on the selected images
  3. Choose "Send to" > "Compressed (zipped) folder"
  4. Rename the ZIP folder with the transaction number (e.g. 175196.zip)
  5. Drag and drop or copy to pdf folder in the Aeon Web Delivery
  6. Follow instructions (4) and (5) above in "Delivering Images with Aeon Web Delivery"
  7. Be aware, that some readers may have trouble opening ZIP folders
