Data Files
When sending a PlanetPress Design Document from PlanetPress Design to PlanetPress Workflow, all data
files used in the document are automatically sent to PlanetPress Workflow along with the Design Document.
These data files appear under the Documents section of the Configuration Components.
To set an attached data file as a sample data file in a process:
1.
Make sure the Documents section is visible by clicking the button if it appears.
2. Expand the document (name.ptk) by clicking the button.
3. Right-click on the data file, then click Set as sample data file.
