Folder Capture retrieves all files corresponding to the specified mask. These files may be of
any format, even formats that are not readable by PlanetPress Workflow.
Note
As with any task that can refer to network resources, it is important to understand the
considerations involved with paths and permissions of these resources. Please refer to
the "Network considerations" on page21 page.
Warning
If you create a Folder Capture input task that takes any file it finds in the root folder of
one of your hard disks, then PlanetPress Workflow will try to remove all the files located
in that folder, including all the system and hidden files. So when using a Folder Capture,
be aware of where you are capturing.
