When storing the message or ID, if they are stored in a jobinfo they will be available in any
error handling process where errors are being forwarded. If your process continues after the
error, the contents of the variables selected in this window will be available to the rest of your
process, or as long as they are not overwritten.
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 OKbutton, and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Standard Filter
Standard Filter action tasks can be used to remove HP Escape characters from data files, as
well as to eliminate spacing problems caused by LF-CR end-of-line sequences.
HP escape characters are used in the Hewlett Packard Printer Control Language (HP PCL) to
communicate basic page formatting and font selection information from print jobs to HP or HP-
compatible printers.
