Welcome to Final Cut Server Administration

Resources for Learning About Final Cut Server

There are a variety of resources for you to use when learning about your
Final Cut Server system.

Final Cut Server Printed Documentation

This guide is one of two printed documents that are included with Final Cut Server.

Â

Final Cut Server Setup and Administration Guide:

This guide describes how to install,

configure, and administer most components of the Final Cut Server system. It does
not describe day-to-day use of the system, such as browsing assets and managing
jobs, productions, and orders, which are described in the

Final Cut Server User Manual.

Important:

An understanding of the material in the

Final Cut Server User Manual

is

assumed in the

Final Cut Server Setup and Administration Guide.

Â

Final Cut Server User Manual:

The user manual describes how to use the

Final Cut Server client for the day-to-day use of the system, such as browsing assets,
managing jobs, and managing productions.

Final Cut Server Onscreen Manuals

Onscreen versions of each of the printed documents are also available while using or
administering Final Cut Server.

Â

From the Final Cut Server client:

The

Final Cut Server User Manual

is available for all

users from the client’s Help menu. The

Final Cut Server Setup and Administration

Guide

is also available from the client’s Help menu if you are logged in with

administration privileges.

Â

From the Final Cut Server server’s System Preferences:

The

Final Cut Server Setup and

Administration Guide

can be accessed from the server’s Final Cut Server System

Preferences by clicking the question mark located in the lower-right corner.

The content of the onscreen versions of this documentation is identical to the printed
versions. The onscreen versions, however, are fully hyperlinked and enhanced with
many features that make locating information quick and easy:

Â

The access page provides quick access to various features, including the index and
other relevant documents and websites.

Â

A comprehensive bookmark list allows you to quickly choose what you want to see
and takes you there as soon as you click the link.
