l
The AutoStore, DocAccel and KYOcapture formats also generate TIFF files along with
special XML that are meant for these specialized systems.
l
VDX: The output will be a VDX file, which is a PDF file with some PPML code inside of it to
enhance performance by doing caching/image reusing. The output can only be used on
devices that support the VDX technology.
l
DPI: Enter the dots per inch (dpi) resolution of the output image. This property is enabled for all
output types except PDF.
l
Color depth: Enter the color depth of the output image in bits per pixel (bpp). The color depth is
measured in bits, because each pixel of the output image can be described with a varied number
of bits. A higher bit number allows for more colors. It also increases the image file size. A 1-bit
color depth produces monochrome images. 8-bits produce grayscale images (in PlanetPress
Design you can have 8-bit color images, but these are reduced to grayscale if you select 8-bit
here), while 24-bits produce full color images. For JPEG output, you cannot select a mono-
chrome (1 bpp) color depth. For TIFF G3 and TIFF G4, monochrome (1 bpp) is the only Color
depth option you can select. This property is enabled for all output types except PDF.
l
Multi-page: Select to generate a single file containing multiple pages. When this option is not
selected, PlanetPress Image creates a file for each page included in the output file. This property
is enabled for all output types except PDF and JPEG.
Add page number: Select to put a page number on each page included in the output file. This
option goes with the Multiple TIFF option and is only visible if either the AutoStore, DocAccel or
KYOcapture format is selected.
l
Data Stream group: Determines what is output by the Digital Action task:
l
Use Digital as new data stream: Use the file generated by the task for the rest of the pro-
cess.
l
Use original data stream (without document): Use the same data file as what was input
to this task.
l
Use original data stream (with document): Uses the PostScript data generated before
image is created.
l
Save a copy: Optional when the "Use Digital as the new data stream" option is checked, oth-
erwise is always checked. Keeps a copy of the digital output onto the specified folder.
l
Folder and filename: Enter the path of the folder to which output files generated by this task are
to be archived. PDF index files (PDI and XML) are also put in this folder. This edit box is enabled
when the Save a copy option is selected. To prevent each new file from overwriting the previous
one, you should use variable names. As with any variable property box, you can use any com-
bination of text, variables and data selections. When multiple files are generated for a single job
