Printer-centric printing
PlanetPress Design lets you send documents to printers as well as to PReS Workflow servers.
l If you send a document to printers only and not to any PReS Workflow server, you will not
be able to see this document in the PReS Workflow Configuration program. To let PReS
Workflow know that the document is available, you will have to add a printer resident
document to your PReS Workflow configuration (see "Adding printer resident documents
to the Configuration Components Pane" below).
l If you send a document to PReS Workflow servers only and not to any printer, you will be
able to see this document in the Configuration Components Pane of the PReS Workflow
Configuration program, but it will not be directly available on any printer.
l If you send a document to PReS Workflow servers and to printers, you will be able to see
this document in the Configuration Components Pane of the PReS Workflow
Configuration program and it will be available on the printers.
Fonts used in Design documents
The fonts used in PlanetPress Design documents installed on PReS Workflow workstations
should be available locally. To install TrueType fonts, use the standard Windows procedure. To
install PostScript fonts, use the Install PostScript Font command in the Workflow ribbon (see
"The PReS Workflow Ribbon" on page688).
Adding printer resident documents to the Configuration Components Pane
By default, the Documents group displayed in Configuration Components pane of the PReS
Workflow Configuration program includes all those documents that are available on your local
PReS Workflow server. Those documents that are not available on your local PReS Workflow
server, but that are either available on printers or on other PReS Workflow servers must be
added to the list, otherwise you will not be able to use them in your PReS Workflow
configuration.
To add a resident document to the Configuration Components pane:
1.
In the PReS WorkflowConfiguration Components pane, right-click PPS/PSM
Documents and choose Insert > Insert Resident Document. The Add Resident
Document dialog box is displayed.
2. Enter the document’s name. Note that the name you enter must exactly match the actual
document name or PReS Workflow will not be able to use it on the printer or remote
