Metadata Tasks
Metadata tasks regroups plug-ins that can create or update metadata for a job file.Metatdata is a hierarchical structure
describing a print job. It is composed of 5 basic levels, from outer to inner: Job, Set, Document, Datapage, and Page.
Create Metadata
Creates all the metadata information from a PlanetPress Design document.
Documents: Select a specific PlanetPress Design document you want all the jobs metadata information generated for.
To create Metadata without using a PlanetPress Design document, choose none. When this option is selected, the plugin
creates a metadata file based on the current process' default emulation. It creates a single Group with a Single Document. It
then creates a Datapage node for each existing datapage (according to the emulation). And finally, a single page is created for
each datapage.
l In PDF emulation, the size and orientation attributes for each page are set in the metadata. In all other emulations,
those attributes remain blank.
l In XML emulation, the metadata file is always created as if the user had specified the "Second Level"parameter in Plan-
etPress Design.
Add job information to the document: Select to prompt your PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools to add the available job
information elements in the header of the generated file. Note that this option is only enabled if a document was selected.
On Error Tab
The On Error Tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found on "Task Properties Dialog" (page 54).
Embed/Extract PlanetPress Suite Metadata
Embed the current PlanetPress Suite metadata inside the current data file in a PDF emulation. It can also extract PlanetPress
Suite metadata from the current data file and make the extracted file the new current metadata file.
Embed/Extract PlanetPress Suite Metadata task properties are as follows:
General Tab
l Extract metadata from PDFjob file:the current metadata file is inserted in the current data file, which is
assumed to be a PDF file. If the original PDF is PDF/X or PDF/A compliant, the resulting PDF filewill also becompliant.
l Embed metadata into PDFjob file:the metadata is extracted from the current data file (which is assumed to be a
PDF file in which metadata has been previously embedded), and it becomes the current metadata from this point on,
overwriting any current metadata file that may already be set.
On Error Tab
The On Error Tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found on "Task Properties Dialog" (page 54).
Metadata Fields Management
The Metadata Fields Management task can be used to add new fields into your metadata, either for every element or through
conditions.
