do not want to have a copy of the file saved with the template you need to do the following:
1. The resource must be located where it can be accessed by all Servers/Slaves run as
users. Failure to do this will cause the image to appear as a Red X in the output for all
documents which were merged by engines which could not access the file. The job will
terminate normally and the error will be logged.
2. The file must be referenced via a UNC path e.g.,
file:////w2k8r2envan/z%20images/Picture/Supported/JPG/AB004763.jpg
l UNC paths are required because the services will be unable to access mapped
network drives (Windows security feature).
l The engine processing the job will look on the local file system for the direct file
path leading to the “resource not found” issue mentioned above.
Warning
Important Note: The Designer itself and Proof Print do not use processes that run as
services and they may find local files with non-UNC paths which can lead to the false
impression that the resources are correct.
Using Capture After Installing Workflow 8
If PlanetPress Connect Workflow 8 is installed alongside PlanetPress Suite Workflow 7,
Capture can no longer be used within Workflow 7. The plugins are now registered uniquely to
Workflow 8 and the messenger for Workflow 7 is taken offline. It is only possible to use Capture
from PlanetPress Connect Workflow 8 thereafter.
Capturing Spool Files After Installing Workflow 8
If PlanetPress Connect Workflow 8 is installed alongside PlanetPress Suite Workflow 7, the
PlanetPress Suite 7 option to capture spool files from printer queues will no longer function.
The solution is to use PlanetPress Connect Workflow 8 to capture spool files from printer
queues.
Colour Model in Stylesheets
The colour model of colours defined in a stylesheet can sometimes change after editing the
stylesheet. This is a known issue and will be addressed in a subsequent release.
