Specifications

Additional properties are shown depending on the selected pickup mechanism; see the description
of each mechanism for more information.
Apago PDFspy
This configurator drives Apago PDFspy 1.0. It is a processor that tells PDFspy to dump a number
of statistics about a PDF file in an XML file, and then picks-up that XML file as metadata that gets
associated with the PDF file's internal job ticket. The PDF file itself remains unchanged.
See Picking up metadata on page 315 and Using metadata on page 315 for more information on
handling metadata in Switch.
Refer to the Apago web site for information on the third-party application required by this
configurator, and refer to the PDFspy product documentation for details on the format of the
XML file produced by this configurator.
