each separate folder, not across folders. The subfolders themselves are always
processed in alphabetical order, regardless of the sort order.
l
Sort directories first: If you selected a sorting method in the Sort files by box, and if you
want the folders present in the source folder to be sorted first, select this option.
l Optimize resulting PDF: Select to specify whether the resulting PDF should be
optimized. Optimization can lead to a significant reduction in the size of the PDF, but it
may also add a certain amount of time to the process. This option should only be
unchecked if the timing of the process is critical and needs to be done quickly, but keep in
mind that the resulting PDFmay be much larger than it should be and may even be too
large for PlanetPress Workflow to handle.
l Create Metadata:Select to specify that a basic metadata structure should be created for
the resulting PDF file. The metadata structure created will contain a single Job separated
by one Document per captured PDFfile. Within each Document, one Data Page
containing a single Page is created for each page of the PDF file.
Note
Metadata can be manipulated with the Metadata Tasks, See "Metadata Tasks" on
page475.
"Other" Tab
l Job Information group
l Information elements:indicates what job infos are automatically created by the
input task.
l Add lines before first data page:Using the arrows keys you can add any job
information directly at the beginning of your data file.
l Backup input files:Check this to save a copy of each data file that is captured by your
input. These files are saved in the PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools working folders
under the "Backup"folder.
l Backup filename:Enter the filename that you wish the input data file backup to be saved
under.
l Delete Existing Metadata:Check to remove any metadata from memory. This option is
disabled on initial input tasks, and is checked by default on secondary input tasks.
