l
The WordToPDF task requires the default system printer to be set to a queue that uses
the PlanetPress printer driver. If you change the default system printer or if you import a
PReS Workflow configuration file from another PC that includes an instance of the
WordToPDF task, you must review the properties of each instance of the task and click
OK to validate its contents. A new printer queue will be created if required and the default
printer will be reset properly. If you do not perform these steps, running the configuration
will result in several error messages being logged and the task failing.
l The preferences for the PrintShop Mail Web connector may not be saved properly if you
set them and close the PReS Workflow Configuration tool without first sending the
configuration to the service. Make sure you send the configuration before exiting from the
Configuration tool.
l
13009: With Outlook 2010, the Send Email functionality requires that the service be run
with administrative credentials in the domain. In addition, both Outlook and the PReS
Workflow Configuration tool must *not* be running while the service is.
l The Microsoft Office 2010/2013/2016 and 365 line of products has not been certified for
use with PReS Workflow. Some of its products may not be compatible with the
connectors included.
l
Barcodes produced in printer-centric mode may have a slightly different aspect from
those produced in Optimized PostScript mode. This is due to the different types of 3rd
party libraries being used to generate the barcodes. However, all barcodes scan correctly.
About PReS Fax
PReS Fax is a service that can be used to output data and documents via a faxing software,
such as Windows Fax (available with Windows 2000, XP, and Microsoft Windows Server™
2003) or Symantec WinFax PRO, as well as via a faxing server, such as Captaris RightFax.
Note that it is these applications that do the actual faxing.
l
Windows 2000: PReS Fax Output tasks set to use Windows Fax under Windows 2000
may fail when no one is logged on to the system running PReS Fax.
l
Windows XP: Windows Fax may not work properly after the Windows XP Service Pack 2
(SP2) has been installed (refer to Microsoft Customer service for more information on this
issue). Also note that Windows Fax may take as much as three times more time to send
faxes under Windows XP.
