l datamapper contains archives of the data mapping configurations (.OL-datamapper)
l jobcreation contains archives of the Job Presets(.OL-jobpreset)
l outputcreation contains archives of the Output Presets (.OL-outputpreset)
l template contains archives of the templates (.OL-template)
l workflow contains archives of Workflow configurations received by the server.
The archives are saved using the template named followed by a timestamp. A maximum of 30
of each instance of a resource is kept (meaning if you have 10 different templates, a maximum
of 300 files will be present in the archive\template folder). Older archives are deleted
automatically as new archives are created.
PPS/PSM Documents
PPS/PSM Documents displays a list of PlanetPress Design and PrintShop Mail Design
document that have been imported into PlanetPress Workflow.
View Document Properties
PlanetPress Workflow Configuration programs let you view a number of the properties
associated with the PlanetPress Design documents you use, but most of those properties are
set in PlanetPress Design and cannot be edited using PlanetPress Workflow Configuration
program.
The Document name of printer-resident documents can be changed using PlanetPress
Workflow Configuration program simply because it is initially set using that program.
The properties available via the Printer Settings tab define how documents are printed. They
are also set using PlanetPress Workflow Configuration program and are retained when
documents are assigned to printer queues. They can be edited by selecting documents within
the Documents category, which changes the document’s default printer settings, or within the
Printer Queues category, which changes the document properties on the selected queue .
To view the properties of a document, do one of the following:
l Click any document to display its properties in the Object Inspector.
l
Double-click any document to display its properties in the PlanetPress Design
Document Options dialog box.
