1. Select the document as displayed under one of the printer queues in question and from
the right-click menu choose Delete Instances.
The Delete Document Instances dialog box appears.
2.
In the Printer Queue list, select all those Workflow printer queues for which you want the
printer queue—document association to be broken.
3. Click OK.
Modifying Design document settings
To modify the settings of a PlanetPress Design document assigned to a Workflow printer
queue:
l
Double-click on the document located within a printer queue. The Document Properties
dialog appears.
The settings available in this window are the same as the Printer Settings dialog of a
document's properties in the Documents list of the Configuration Components pane, but they
are specifically for this document on this printer queue. See "PlanetPress Design document
properties" on page590 for more details.
About processes and subprocesses
Processes
A process is a single workflow within a configuration (see "About Workflow Configurations" on
page28). A process begins with a single input task, contains one or more tasks and/or
branches, and terminates with one or more output tasks. In its simplest form, a process can
retrieve data from a given folder and save it in a different folder. In most cases, though,
processes are more elaborate and configurations, which may include many processes, can be
extremely complex.
PReS Workflow processes act as dispatchers: on the one hand, they retrieve data and control
plugins that retrieve data from watched locations, and on the other hand they can perform a
variety of operations on the data and send data to various devices.
A given process may include Output tasks that generate files used by Input tasks from other
processes.
Each process’s schedule determines when its initial input task can be performed. Other tasks
