to run it on every computer where PlanetPress Workflow is running, but you may also choose to
run it on computers more or less dedicated to PlanetPress Fax.
Since the faxing program must always be running and ready to receive requests from
PlanetPress Workflow, it should be included in the Windows Startup group.
PlanetPress Fax can associate a different fax number with each page it sends via the faxing
software. For this to happen, two things are required: each record must have a fax number
specified in the job file and that fax number must be tagged as such in PlanetPress Design (in
the PlanetPress Design User Guide, refer to the section documenting Data Selections, which
includes explanations on the available PlanetPress Fax options). When the data and the
document are merged, the fax number associated with each record becomes available to
PlanetPress Fax that can then pass it on to the faxing software.
Note
Because of technical limitations, the minimum time required to generate a PlanetPress Fax
document is approximately 10 times longer on Windows 2000 than on Windows XP/2003.
About PlanetPress Image
PlanetPress Image is a multi-threaded service that can generate image files in PDF, JPEG and
TIFF format. As PlanetPress Workflow and PlanetPress Image are compliant with AutoStore,
DocAccel and KYOcapture, these formats can also be used.
The generated files can be archived and, depending on whether you use a PlanetPress Image
Output task or a Digital Action task, sent via email. Note that you can use PlanetPress Search,
another program included in PlanetPress Workflow, to search through archived PDF files.
Note
All raster images, such as GIFs or JPEGs, generated by PlanetPress Image are portrait
oriented.
PlanetPress Image can be installed on any computer on your network and can process
requests coming from tasks performed by PlanetPress Workflow on other workstations. You
