l Number of virtual pages that appear on each physical page: This is equivalent to the N in N-Up. This
number should be equal to the total number of virtual pages in your PlanetPress Design document. For example, a 2
horizontal x 3 vertical is 6-up, so this number should be 6.
l Number of data pages that make up a single duplex virtual document: Either 1 if your document is duplex
(has a front and back), whether the back has variable data or not, or 2 if your document is simplex or the data is
already properly duplicated so the front and back already match.
On Error Tab
The On Error Tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found on "Task Properties Dialog" (page 54).
Rule Interface
The Rule Interface can be opened from the Condition column of the following tasks:
l "Metadata Fields Management" (page 195)
l "Metadata Filter" (page 197)
l "Metadata Level Creation" (page 198)
l "Metadata Sequencer" (page 198)
l "Input from SharePoint" (page 161)
Conditions are expressed using the following syntax:
<EXPRESSION 1> <OPERATOR> <EXPRESSION 2>
The <EXPRESSION 1> and<EXPRESSION 2> options represent the values for comparison. The interface displays click-
able links as the following:
l Click to set expression
l Choose operator
l Click to set expression
The left expression (<EXPRESSION 1>) can either be a custom list or a parsable edit field. The right expression (<EXPRES-
SION 2>) is always a parsable edit field.
The Operator options are listed below. To set them click Choose operator option.
l IS EQUAL TO
l IS NOT EQUAL TO
l IS EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN (>=)
l IS EQUAL TO OR LESS THAN (<=)
l IS CONTAINED IN
l IS NOT CONTAINED IN
l CONTAINS
l IS GREATER THAN
l IS LOWER THAN
l STARTS WITH
