Whats the difference between “document sharing” and “application sharing”?
Document sharing uses a printer driver (the WebEx Document Loader) to create an image of your document, which is then presented for review and markup in the Training Manager content viewer. This image is much like a printed document or faxthat is , you cannot edit it. This image requires relatively little bandwidth and thus works well at slower connection speeds. On the other hand, application sharing sends images of the application in real-time, allowing you to edit documents as well as show all of an application’s features, such as menus and tools. This type of sharing is much more powerful and requires more bandwidth.
A. With document sharing, attendees can see the document, but you can’t change it. With application sharing, you share the application that you used to create or change the document; as you change the document, your attendees see your changes. Application sharing uses more bandwidth and therefore can affect the overall performance of your meeting. You can share virtually any type of document or application, but those that stream video or audio may not display appropriately. To share streaming content, use “Web content sharing” which displays the content in a Web browser on each attendee’s computer. All you have to do is select Web Content from the Share menu, enter the URL of a Web site that contains the streaming content, and your attendees can see it in their own browsers. You can share many documents or presentations at the same time; each document or presentation appears on its own tab in the content viewer. Document sharing requires relatively little bandwidth and thus works well
