E.g. configuring the WGS 1984 projection for the WebOffice Sample Project:

Add a projection to the list of projections. Insert the Name and the EPSG code for WGS84. EPSG codes can be found in <ArcGIS_Desktop_Installation_Folder>\Documentation\projected_coordinate_systems.pdf or in <ArcGIS_Desktop_Installation_Folder>\Documentation\geographic_coordinate_systems.pdf. For searching the EPSG code for WGS84 open the geographic_coordinate_systems.pdf and search for ‘WGS 1984’.

 

EPSG codes for geographic coordinate systems

 

If you are unsure about the projection of your project, switch to ArcMap and open the data frame properties of your main map service data frame. Go to tab Coordinate System and check the projection. WebOffice

schaut auf List of Projections

 

Sample Project’s projection is ETRS _1989_LAEA.

 

 

Now switch to the geographic_transformations.pdf and search for ‘ETRS_1989’ until you find ‘ETRS_To_WGS_1984’. Copy the geographic transformation code and insert it into the Datum/ID field in your project configuration.

 

 

Provide a result precision and switch the output format.

For custom projection and custom transformation (no EPSG and geographic transformation code available) you can insert the full strings with parameters:

 

Navigate to your custom PRJ-file and open it in a text editor. Copy the content and paste it to Projection ID/String. Then open the GTF-file and copy the readable content (not the binary content!) to Datum ID/String. Configuration may look like this:

 

 

Note: For using custom projections it is strongly recommended to define custom transformations. This can be done by using the Create Custom Geographic Transformation Tool from the ArcToolbox. The transformations can be defined and the GTF-Files are saved by default in <AppData>\Roaming\Esri\ArcToolbox\CustomTransformations.
