files in the form of print jobs. This queue can be shared, so as to be able to receive jobs
sent from local as well as remote users.
To ensure that the spooled files created by PlanetPress Workflow queue remain in the spool
folder, the printer queue must be paused.
Input
The WinQueue input regularly polls the selected printer queue for new jobs. When a new job is
available, it is captured automatically by this task.
Processing
The print job, by default, is in EMFformat. If this option is selected, no action is taken on the
data file. However, if the RAWformat is selected, the job is converted to RAW. Furthermore, if
the Create PDFoption is selected, the file is converted to a PDF, including metadata.
Output
Either one of 3 formats is output from this task:
l An EMFjob format
l A RAWjob format
l A PDF with attached metadata.
