l
The Create Preview PDF plugin generates a PDF preview for a single record as fast as
possible. It is typically used for previews embedded in web pages. (See Create Preview
PDF.)
Production report process
The key plugin in a process that produces reports about jobs received with OL Connect Send is
the Get Data plugin. It allows to query the OL Connect Send database. (See "Get Data" on
page604.)
Sample project
The Ad Hoc Mail Consolidation sample project may help you understand the Workflow
processes for OL Connect Send and configure your own.
l
Watch the sample in action on demo.objectiflune.com. Under Ad Hoc Mail
Consolidation, click Demo and follow the instructions. (If you have already installed the
printer driver, you don't have to do that again.) Add a Connect Send printer with the given
settings and print the provided Word file to that printer. The printer will trigger an
interactive process on demo.objectiflune.com.
l Download the sample files from OL's Resource Center:
http://help.objectiflune.com/en/#csend.
About Tasks
A task is a plugin or a block that is used to build PReS Workflow processes. Tasks can do
multiple things depending on the type of task and where they are placed. You can add as many
tasks as you like to your processes and order them in any way you can.
There are different types of tasks:
l
Input Task: Will either capture data from a specific location, or wait for input from a
service or other computer to start processing.
l
Action Task: Will manipulate the data in any number of ways. An action task is any task
that is not an input or output task or a branch or condition.
l
Output Task: Will output data to a specific location or send to a different service or
computer.
