Input
A data file compatible with a PrintShop Mail Document. Metadata is ignored by this task.
Processing
The data file is merged with the selected PrintShop Mail Design document, producing the
number of records selected in the task properties. This merging uses the PrintShop Mail engine
(PSMail.exe) to generate the output.
Output
The output produced by this task is dependent on the options selected: it can be PDF, a
Windows EMF print job, a PostScript print job or a JPGfile. Note that the Preflight output type
doesn't actually produce printable or viewable output. The Preflight option does a cursory
verification of the job and will generate an XMLfile that contains a list of all warnings and
errors.
