How to use PDF generator installed on dedicated machine

Hi!

According to Adobe official recommendation I have installed PDF generator on dedicated machine, separed from rest of LiveCycle modules. But now I don't know how to use such a PDF generator from my LC processes. Obviously I may use webservice component and call PDF generator using SOAP. But that is not elegant. I searched in adminui for some URL or IP address settings, but found nothing.

And what to do when I have more then one PDF generator server? Probably I need some sort of load balancing. Is LC ES capable of work in such configuration?

Thanks for some ideas.

There is possible to specify PDF generator location in file repository:///assembler.properties . So I created the file:

serverType=JBoss
protocol=soap
endPoint=http://192.168.2.1:8080
username=administrator
password=password

and put it to repository root. Unfortunetally nothing happened. I restared server also but no effect. Do you have some experience with configuring server location in LiveCycle?
