Printer Properties setup
PlanetPress Workflow WinQueue Input task can be configured to set a Windows printer queue
using Objectif Lune Printer Driver (PS) to produce one of 3 different types of data files: EMF,
PostScript, or PDF. Note that PlanetPress Workflow can only produce EMF or PostScript files.
Possible printer properties settings, along with the data file type it will produce:
Spool Print Jobs in EMF Format:
l This will create an EMF data file.
l This format is usually reserved for use with the Windows Print Converter action plugin.
l This format can be obtained using PlanetPress Workflow.
Spool Print Jobs in RAW Format:
l This will create a PostScript data file when the option Create Composed Document
Stream (with Medatada) is unchecked.
l This format can be obtained using PlanetPress Workflow.
l This will create a PDF data file when the option Create Composed Document Stream
(with Medatada) is checked.
l This format can be obtained using PlanetPress Workflow.
By default, the Create Composed Document Stream option is:
l Checked if the incoming stream has been produced with the Objectif Lune Printer Driver.
l Unchecked if the incoming stream comes from some other PostScript Driver.
l Grayed out and unchecked if the incoming stream is not PostScript.
Data Capture from PlanetPress Workflow
Once a shared Windows printer queue using Objectif Lune Printer Driver (PS) is installed on
both the server and the client sides, data capture can be achieved the same way as with any
other Windows printer queues.
1. Open your PlanetPress Workflow Configuration program.
2. Insert a new process.
3. Select WinQueue Input from the Plugin Bar and insert it in the new process.
4. In the WinQueue Input properties, select a Windows print queue using the Objectif Lune
Printer Driver (PS) from the drop-down list.
