Why does DocShuttle software utilize FTP as the means of Internet file transfer?
Most people who have browsed the web are familiar with the HTTP protocol (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) for viewing web pages. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a similar protocol but is designed for transferring multiple files over the Internet (unlike most web page links that download one file at a time). Also, FTP requires no setup of html pages on the web server. DocShuttle is a simple program that can be installed in minutes and can be used immediately without any work on a web site.
