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 PDF/VT
The Create PDF/VT, similar to the Create PDF task, creates PDF/VTfiles from a PlanetPress Document.
This PDF/VTis compatible with the Create Print Content directly without the use of a Connect Template
(PDF/VTmode).
Input
Any data file supported by the selected PlanetPress Document.
Processing
The input data file is merged with the selected PlanetPress Document.
Output
The output is a PDF/VT with default quality settings. The metadata embedded within the PDF/VTis the one
generated by the PlanetPress Document.
Properties
The Create PDF/VT action task properties are as follows (note that the Connect Proxytab is not present as
this task does not communicate with the OLConnect Server module):
General Tab
l
Documents: Select a specific PlanetPress Design document if you want all the jobs to be generated
with that document.
l Recipient Node:Use the drop-down to select which level of the metadata is used as the "Recipient"
node. The Recipient node defines each Record in the output when used with the Create Print Content.
l Add job information to document:Check to add the 9 jobinfo variables to the PDF/VT metadata at
the root level.
