Design User Guide.
Generating output with PlanetPress Design documents
PlanetPress Design documents are typically selected in certain Output tasks designed to
merge data with a Design document, but they can also appear in other tasks that produce
formatted data such as the Digital Action task and the Add Document task.
If a task lets you select a PlanetPress Design document to be used with the task, the selection
list will appear on one or more of the tabs in the Task Properties dialog that appears when you
add the task to a process (see "Adding tasks" on page335).
For information about the options in the selection list, see "Selecting a resource file in task
properties" on page341.
Printer-centric printing
PlanetPress Design lets you send documents to printers as well as to PlanetPress Workflow
servers.
l If you send a document to printers only and not to any PlanetPress Workflow server, you
will not be able to see this document in the PlanetPress Workflow Configuration program.
To let PlanetPress Workflow know that the document is available, you will have to add a
printer resident document to your PlanetPress Workflow configuration (see "Adding
printer resident documents to the Configuration Components Pane" on the facing page).
l If you send a document to PlanetPress Workflow servers only and not to any printer, you
will be able to see this document in the Configuration Components Pane of the
PlanetPress Workflow Configuration program, but it will not be directly available on any
printer.
l If you send a document to PlanetPress Workflow servers and to printers, you will be able
to see this document in the Configuration Components Pane of the PlanetPress Workflow
Configuration program and it will be available on the printers.
