Login options
You can log into Visiodocs with your existing Google or Facebook account (federated login). This is recommended by many as a both convenient and safe method, where you do not have to handle a separate password specifically for Visiodocs. When using a federated login, you are shortly redirected to Google or Facebook to get authenticated, before returning to Visiodocs. You can also choose to log in to Visiodocs using email and password. To do this, you initially need to sign up to Visiodocs, providing name, email and a unique, safe password. Regardless of which login method you use, you can choose the option ‘Keep me logged in’. When used, your browser stores the authentication information needed to log in for next time you visit Docavea. Use only ‘Keep me logged in’ when you are the only user of the computer account or device.Note that each of the login methods create a separate account in Visiodocs. To avoid confusion, Visiodocs displays in the login page the login method last used. Once logged in, you do have the option to change login method in the user account dialog.
​
Shortcut on home screen and desktop
Visiodocs is a ‘SaaS’ application (Software as a Service), that offer you the same application and the same features, whether you use it on the desktop, tablet or smart phone. There is nothing that needs installing, as you are always running the latest release from visiodocs.com in you web browser.
You start Visiodocs directly by browsing to app.visiodocs.com. In your browser you can then choose to bookmark the web address for future convenience.
In most browsers you can also create a Visiodocs shortcut directly in your device’s home screen or desktop, so that you can open Visiodocs the same way you open classic installed apps. This browser option is typically called ‘Add to Home Screen’ or ‘Create shortcut’. When opening Visiodocs from such a shortcut, the browser’s address bar will typically be hidden to provide more room for the web content.
​
Supported file types
Internally Visiodocs operates with PDF files, but most office and image formats are also supported, and will be automatically converted to PDF (Apple iWork is not supported). The list of supported formats match the growing list of files supported by LibreOffice. Currently .doc, .docx, .ppt, .pptx, .xls, .xlsx, .odt, .odp, .ods, .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .tiff are supported world-side. I certain regions we support eml in addtion to a.m. mentioned formats.
You can also convert most files yourself, as Windows, macOS etc. has build-in PDF printer drivers. Simply open you existing document and print it to a PDF file. This also allows you to adjust the layout, e.g. when you convert spreadsheets or CAD into PDF pages. The PDF printer driver is also a convenient way of converting web pages into PDF.
