Metadata
If no metadata file is found, the from/to page settings from the job and the printer's properties from the task configuration are
used, with the job's settings overriding those of the printer where applicable.If a metadata file is found, it is used to indicate
which pages are printed and in which order. Any other metadata is ignored.

On Error Tab
The On Error Tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found on Task Properties Dialog.
If storing the message or ID, if they are store in a jobinfo they will be available in any error handling process where errors are
being forwarded. In all cases, if your process continues after the error, the contents of the variables selected in this window
will be available for the rest of your process, or whenever they are overwritten.
Common Errors
Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks because they are
related more to the system than to PlanetPress itself. Some examples would be W3813, W3830, W3991, W4005. These cor-
respond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission errors on folders or files, etc.
Comments Tab
The Comments tab, added in PlanetPress Suite 7.5, is common to all tasks. It contains a single text area (Task
comments)that lets you write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the
OKbutton, and are displayed in The Task Comments Pane.

Printer Queue output tasks dispatch jobs to selected printer queues. Note that you must have created at least one printer
queue before you can add your first Printer Queue output task. Furthermore, to print the data file with a PlanetPress Design
document, you must have associated at least one document with a printer queue.
You can select multiple queues in a Printer Queue output tasks and choose exactly how your jobs will be dispatched to the
selected printers.
