Documentation

Definition

Time allowed to the converter for conversion.

Use

It is possible that some input files block the conversion, such as through an endless loop. To keep this from blocking the converter and from locking the documents you can enter a conversion time. After this time has passed the conversion is cancelled.

Example

Tests have shown that converter A needs 5 minutes on average for converting into the chosen file format (for example, *.jt). Large input files require around 40 minutes on converter A.
Enter 60 minutes for the conversion to avoid causing an endless loop.

Note

This parameter is not supported by all converters.
