l
Folder and filename: Enter the path of the folder to which output files generated by this
task are to be archived. PDF index files (PDI and XML) are also put in this folder. This edit
box is enabled when the Save a copy option is selected. To prevent each new file from
overwriting the previous one, you should use variable names. As with any variable
property box, you can use any combination of text, variables and data selections. When
multiple files are generated for a single job (such as for multiple TIFFs), each file name
includes a sequence number, such as in Invoice0, Invoice1, Invoice2. If you use file name
masks that include dots, such as Statement.%y.@(1,1,1,1,25,KeepCase,Trim) or Job.%f,
for example, you must add quotation marks at the beginning and end of the file name
(“Statement.%y.%m.@(1,1,1,1,25,KeepCase,Trim)” or ”Job.%f”). Otherwise, when the file
is saved, anything appearing after the last dot is replaced by the file’s extension
characters (and the file name thus becomes Statement.2005.pdf instead of
Statement.2005.255842.pdf, or Job.tif instead of Job.544872.tif). Failing to add the
quotation marks may result in files being overwritten.
l
Automatically Add Extension: Check if you want the correct extension for the image
type to be appended to the filename automatically, rather than having to add it in the
Filename box. The Output Type determines the extension to be used.
l
Add PDF to PReS Search database: Check to update the PReS Search database with
each new PDF generated.
l
Index group: This group lets you specify which type of index must be created for each
document generated by this task. PDI files are used by PReS Search as indexing
information.
l
None: Select if you do not want this task to add an index file to the generated
document.
l
PDI: Select if you want this task to add a PDI index file to the generated document.
l
XML and PDI: Select if you want this task to add both an XML and a PDI index file
to the generated document.
ll
Use Title as FormName for PDF/VT document: Check to use the Title (defined on the
Job Options tab) as the PDF's FormName in the PDI, instead of the incoming PDF/VT
document's dc.title meta data tag. If the Title is empty, a warning is logged and the
FormName is not changed.
Job Options Tab
If you chose PDF as the output type in the General tab, use this tab to choose the appropriate
PDF options. Note that all the options available in this tab are only used with PDF files.
