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.
Known issue: If a data file with metadata is resubmitted to such a process, the from/to page values set by the user in the
Resubmit interface are 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.
Printer Queue Output
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.
Input
Any data file.
Processing
If the data file is in a valid Emulation and a document is selected, the data file and document are merged to produce a Post-
Script output. The output may be an Optimized PostScript Stream or a Printer Centric stream (data file +trigger).
If the data file is any file and the Passthrough option is selected, the file is sent as-is to the selected printer queue. Whether the
queue will properly output depends on the capabilities of the queue and its target. For example, sending a JPGfile in pass-
through to an FTPor Send to Folder output will simply place the file in the destination. Sending this same file to an LPRor Win-
Queue output will produce no output as these queues expect valid PostScript.
Task Properties
General tab
l Queues: Select the queues to which you want to send the output.
l Documents: Select None if you want the data to print as is. Select a specific PlanetPress Design document if you
want all the jobs to be printed with that document. To use a document chosen at runtime for each job, enter a dynamic
document name using a combination of text, variables and data selections. To enable the dynamic document name
box, click inside it. To disable it, press Enter. Note that in the later case, you must be certain that the documents that
will be chosen at runtime will in fact be available locally or at all the selected printer. Note that PlanetPressSuite Work-
flow Tools will not specify a given document version number, so the latest version will be used by default. To specify a
