Digital Action tasks, in a PDF/VT file created with Connect, see the Connect Online Help:
Generating tags for Image output.
Alternatively, select a PlanetPress Design document if you want all the jobs to be generated with
that document. To use a document chosen at run-time for each job, enter a dynamic document
name using a combination of text, variables and data selections. To enable the dynamic doc-
ument name box, click inside it. To disable it, press Enter. Note that in the latter case, you must
be certain that the documents that will be chosen at run-time will in fact be available locally or at
the selected host.

l
Output type: Select the output file type that you want.
l
PDF: The output will be a PDF file. If you select PDF, the DPI and Color Depth options (see
below) are disabled and the options available in the PDF tab are enabled.
l
JPEG: The output will be a JPEG file. JPEG is a lossy compression image format that cre-
ates small files, compressing continuous tone images (such as scanned photographs) well.
l
TIFF: The output will be a TIFF file. TIFF is a higher quality format that is one of the stand-
ards for document exchange, useful for eventual printing or archiving. You have a choice of
the following compressed TIFF formats: TIFF Group 3, TIFF Group 4, and TIFF Packed
bits. You can also use the uncompressed TIFF format, which produces the largest files with
the highest quality. TIFF is a versatile and platform-independent format. It is used in many
digitizing projects as the format of choice for the digital masters. The TIFF Group 3 and
Group 4 formats are efficient for document storage.
