formatting caused by isolated CR characters found within the data. This option can only
be used with the ASCII emulation.
Note for PlanetPress Suite users: You cannot select this option if the Design document is
to be installed on a printer that cannot run in binary mode.
l
Data encoding: Select the appropriate encoding for the sample data file. You may look at
the data in the Data Pane (non-English characters especially, if any) to see how the your
selection affects the data.
XML Emulation
XML data emulations allow you to capture data emanating from web databases, e-mail
fulfillment, e-commerce, and general XML database engines. In XML emulation, the data
elements in markup language format are organized in a folder view with a root node and sub-
level nodes.
Note
Characters referenced using the ϧ syntax are limited to values ranging from 000 (�) to
256 (Ā).
Note
When XML data is merged with PlanetPress Design documents on a printer DOCTYPE and
ENTITY tags are ignored.
XML emulation options
l
Cache XML data: When this option is selected, PlanetPress Workflow Server only
reloads the data if the size or modified date of the XML file changes. When this option is
not selected, the XML data will be reloaded into memory every time that a plugin works on
the data file. Caching the XML data will make subsequent tasks run faster (as loading an
XML file can take a long time) but will also use up more memory since that memory isn't
released in between tasks. For single runs the performance gain is less noticeable than in
loops (either through a splitter, a Loop task or a Metadata filter) where the XML file would
be loaded repeatedly.
