Specifications

This dialog will display all variables available for that type (i.e. Number, Length, String, or Boolean)
of check. If the variable you need does not display, it's either entered in a different Variable Set,
or it's not defined as the same "type" as the check you're applying it to.
To apply the variable, select it from the list and click the OK button. The name of the variable will
display in the entry box or next to the checkbox it's applied.
Running Variable Checks
Once you have your variable sets defined and applied to your preflight profiles (or Action Lists) you
can easily apply it to a PitStop Server workflow.
To start, you'll define a new Hot Folder set-up or edit an existing one. Once all the settings for the
base set-up is complete, you'll click on the Smart Preflight option in the PitStop Server Hot Folder
Editor.
Under Smart Preflight, you'll start by selecting the Variable Set to be used with the Preflight Profile
and Action list in this Hot Folder set up. It's very important that the correct one is selected as the
workflow will not activate if the Variable Set does not match what's been used in the profiles.
Job ticket file matching
Next, you need to turn on Use Job Ticket and define the file name pattern for the associated job
ticket. For the file name pattern there are two variables that can be inserted - one to duplicate the
source PDF file name and one for the file extension.
The Time out function will tell PitStop Server how long to wait before rejecting any orphaned
documents or job tickets. You then have choices for where orphaned files are moved. The default
location is the root directory of your PitStop Server Hot Folder set up for that workflow.
Transfer Job Tickets will allow you to define where processed job tickets are sent after processing.
Test or verify variables in a Variable Set
In the Enfocus Variable Set Editor, you can review and verify settings within a Variable Set to
ensure the variables defined work as expected.
