Note
Completely empty files (0 bytes) cannot be processed by Workflow.
In fact, the PReS Workflow plugin based architecture enables almost limitless customization.
You can create or purchase compatible plugins, drop them in PReS Workflow's Plug-In Bar and
use them to perform other operations.
Adding tasks
You can add as many tasks as you want to your process by using the Plug-in Bar in PReS
Workflow program.
To insert a task:
1.
Open the Plug-in Bar by clicking on its tab. If you can't see the Plug-in Bar tab, click on
the View tab in the Ribbon and make sure the Plug-in Bar is highlighted in the
Show/Hide section.
