Common Errors
Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks
because they are related more to the system than to PlanetPress itself. Some examples would be W3813,
W3830, W3991, W4005. These correspond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission
errors on folders or files, etc.
Comments Tab
The Comments tab is common to all tasks. It contains a single text area (Task comments)that lets you
write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the OKbutton,
and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Create Job
The Create Job action task prepares a series of print content items for output generation. AJob is not actual
contents but simply a collection of content items ready to be printed.
Input
The task expects to have a valid Print Content Set, output from the "Create Print Content" on page490 task,
or the result of the "Retrieve Items" on page504 task set to retrieve either Content Items or Content Set.
Note
The result of a Retrieve Items task cannot be used with a Job Creation Preset. Use the IDs in the metadata instead
(see the Properties below).
Processing
The task prepares the content items or content sets for printing, tagging them as printable. Only the content
items that are part of the job will generate output.
Output
The task outputs a Print Job ready to be sent to the Create Output task for printing.
