Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
The tab also provides an option to highlight the task in "The Process area" on page829 with
the default color, set in the Preferences (see "General appearance preferences" on page716),
or the color selected or defined under Highlight color on this tab.
To revert the selected highlight color to the default color, open this tab, turn the Highlight option
off and close the dialog with the OK button; then turn highlighting back on.
Highlighting can also be turned on and off via the task's contextual menu and with the Highlight
button on the View ribbon.
Metadata to PDI
The Metadata to PDI task takes the active metadata and generates a PDI using the information
in that metadata. It is generally used in conjunction with a PDF data file and is used to generate
the PDI file which is used by PReS Search when building, refreshing or rebuilding its
database.
For more information about Metadata see "Metadata" on page73.
Input
This task can use any data file, as long as it is accompanied by metadata. This metadata may
have been directly generated or could be extracted from a PDF using the Embed and Extract
PReS Workflow Metadata task.
Processing
The metadata is read and PDF indexes are located. These indexes are defined in the
PlanetPress Design document as data selections, in which the Archive / Email / Fax properties
define the data as an index with a name.
When all the indexes are collected, a PDI file is generated with those indexes.
Output
The output is the same as the input, no modification is done to either the data file or the
metadata. However, a PDI file is generated and saved in the location specified in the task.
