By default, Tornado will attempt to launch the maximum number of converters permitted by your license key.

In practice you may want to specify the exact number converters that Tornado starts.

You can do this by setting the property: docmosis.tornado.converters.launch, in the Tornado console.

Those of you who use the Cloud/SAAS version of Docmosis will soon be notified that a new version of the console is available.

With many additions at the core of our document generation engine, the new features will be rolled out across all three products.
