l
Use archive attribute: Select to turn on the archive attribute of the data files found in the
source folder and to leave them in their original location (i.e. to take copies of the source
files). Note that PlanetPress Workflow never takes source files that have their archive
attribute turned on (so the source files will not be taken again and again). When this
option is turned off, PlanetPress Workflow removes data files from the source location.
l
Capture files in sub-directories also: Select to capture files from child folders of the
source folder as well. When this option is selected, the chosen Sort order is applied to
each separate folder, not across folders. The subfolders themselves are always
processed in alphabetical order, regardless of the sort order.
l
Sort directories first: If you selected a sorting method in the Sort files by box, and if you
want the folders present in the source folder to be sorted first, select this option.
l
Optimize resulting PDF: Select to specify whether the resulting PDF should be
optimized. Optimization can lead to a significant reduction in the size of the PDF, but it
may also add a certain amount of time to the process. This option should only be
unchecked if the timing of the process is critical and needs to be done quickly, but keep in
mind that the resulting PDF may be much larger than it should be and may even be too
large for PlanetPress Workflow to handle.
l
Create Metadata: Select to specify that a basic metadata structure should be created for
the resulting PDF file. The metadata structure created will contain a single Job separated
by one Document per captured PDF file. Within each Document, one Data Page
containing a single Page is created for each page of the PDF file.
Note
Metadata can be manipulated with Metadata tasks; see "Metadata tasks" on page559.

information directly at the beginning of your data file.

input. These files are saved in the PlanetPress Workflow Tools working folders under
