Note
Line printer emulation is only used when merging line printer data with a PlanetPress Design
document.
When choosing a line printer sample data file to be merged with a Connect template, select Text
emulation (see "Text-based emulation" on the facing page).
Line printer emulation options
The line printer emulation does not have any options other than the general text-based
emulation options (see "Text-based emulation" on the facing page).
PDF emulation
The PDF emulation allows you to capture data from fully composed documents in a PDF
format.
PDF emulation slightly differs from other emulations: with other emulations, data is read either
one line at a time or one character at a time, while PDF emulation processes the input data
from the PDF file in such a fashion that every PDF page becomes a full data page.
Note
Protected PDF and PDF of versions above 1.7 are not supported by PReS Workflow.
PDF emulation options
The PDF emulation does not have any options - that is, there is nothing to set up when opening
a PDF data file.
In the Preferences there is a number of options that affect how words, lines and paragraphs are
detected in the PDF when creating data selections. You will find these options when you select
Workflow > Preferences > PDF Text Extractor. For more information see "PDF text extraction
tolerance factors" on page734.
