Emulated Data Splitter
Emulated Data Splitter action tasks are used to split emulated data files (with the exception of
XML and database data files - refer to "XML Splitter" on page493 or "Database Splitter" on
page478) into multiple data files that are passed to subsequent tasks in the process.
The data received by the process is typically prepared for a given output device using a pre-set
emulation. In some cases, the data’s original emulation may also have been changed by a
Change Emulation action task (See "Change Emulation" on page415 and "About data
emulation" on page60).
Using an emulation to format the data before splitting provides the most splitting options, but
slows down the process. Splitting a data file containing a few hundred thousand pages may
take several hours. So you may choose to use non-emulated data to speed up the splitting
process (See "In-Stream Splitter" on page488).
Example
This task is put into effect in the following example process:
l Capture Web Manager Workflow
Note that Capture can only be used with PlanetPress Suite.
Input
Any emulated data file.
Processing
The file is separated into multiple chunks according to the rules set in the task's properties.
Output
Multiple data files, sent one after the other to the rest of the tasks in the process. Metadata, job
infos and user variables are not modified by this task.
