Metadata Sequencer
Although the Metadata Sequencer acts as a splitter, the data file itself remains untouched, as
neither the data nor the Metadata are actually being split through this task. With each
sequence, the entire data file still gets carried from one task to another. Metadata records are
simply selected/deselected, which has the same effect.
For more information about Metadata see "Metadata" on page69.
Note
When using a PlanetPress Design document as input, the PDF Splitter will do the job quicker
than the Metadata Sequencer task. However, when using a PDF as input, the Metadata Sequencer
might perform better. For more information and some test results, see this How-to: Performance
testing grounds.
Input
Any data file with accompanying Metadata.
Processing
A loop is established and the Metadata is separated into chunks, as defined in the rules set
forth in the task properties.
Output
The original data file is output once per chunk, along with this chunk's metadata. Note that all
the Metadata is in each of the sequence, but anything not part of the sequence is disabled and
is ignored by all tasks using Metadata afterwards.
