Creating Triggers
This chapter describes platform-specific procedures for creating a trigger and inserting it
at the head of a data stream.
Overview
A job consists of a document, a trigger, and data. If you are not using PlanetPress Watch, you must
manually create the appropriate trigger, add it to the head of the data stream, and send the result to the
printer on which the document resides. The procedure for creating the trigger and adding it to the head of
the data stream is platform-dependent.
