4.13 Selecting Documents in Tasks
Which options do I have when selecting documents in an output or action task?
The properties dialog box of some action and output tasks let you select documents. When you add a
PlanetPress Fax output task to your process, for example, you must tell select PlanetPress Fax which
document to use to create the fax.
In most cases, you have three options:
• You can choose not to use any document (note that this option can be used with neither PlanetPress Fax
nor PlanetPress Image output tasks).
• You can choose a specific document, or if you prefer a document that be used in every case at run-time.
• You can choose a variable document (see below for more detailed information).
