Using the New Encompass Document Viewer A new document viewer is available in the Encompass eFolder and on the Documents page on Encompass TPO Connect and Encompass LO Connect websites. This guide describes how to use the viewer, which was developed in-house by ICE Mortgage Technology and eliminates the limitations and issues that occurred with the Adobe-based viewer that was previously used to view file attachments. The viewer displays only for new loans created after the viewer is enabled. The viewer has similar functionality to the existing document viewer that is used when the Document Conversion setting is enabled (Encompass > Settings > eFolder Setup > Document Conversion). When using the viewer, the Document Conversion option is always enabled, and all file attachments are converted to image files for loans using the viewer regardless of the option selected in the Document Conversion setting. NOTE: If for any reason, a document fails to convert during the import, the document will not display in the viewer. However, the file is still accessible from the viewer, and you can select the file, click the Download button, save the file with the correct file extension to a location on your computer, and then reimport it. Features Overview The viewer has similar functionality to the existing viewer used for file attachments when the Document Conversion setting is enabled. The following existing functionality is being retained in the new viewer: ▪ Thumbnail navigation panel for navigating through pages in the file ▪ View pages by scrolling through the file or by entering a page number ▪ Rotate pages clockwise or counter clockwise ▪ Zoom in or out when viewing a page ▪ Edit documents ▪ Add annotations ▪ Reorder pages ▪ Delete pages ▪ Split pages ▪ Merge pages ▪ Drag and drop pages to a new location within a file August 2021 © 2021 ICE Mortgage Technology.
