Chapter 6 - Page Layout

uS i n g t H e te m p l a t e HO t FO l d e r

After setting the Hot Folder, FastRIP

automatically creates a subfolder in the

directory for each of your templates.

Simply by adding jobs into the

“named” template folder, the jobs will

be added to your queue, using that

template. e jobs are added in Ex-

press mode.

In this example, a 3-up folder, there is a

folder representing each slot number.

So if you add a job to the root of this

folder it gets added to the queue using

this template in Express mode, but if

you add the job into one of the sub-

folders labeled “1”, “2” or “3”, then the

job will be added to that particular slot

of that template.

It’s easy to use hot folders for templates and have complete control over which template and slot

is used for printing the job.
