Match case: Will force the lookup column names to be in exactly the same case as
the Lookup column name. This means if you type in "CustomerID" in the lookup
column and the actual column is named "customerid", it would not return any result.

The Miscellaneous tab is common to all tasks.

Microsoft® Word® Documents To PDF Conversion
The Microsoft® Word® Documents to PDF Conversion action task can be used to convert a
Word® document into a PDF file that can be used in your PReS Workflow process. It can also
do a Mail Merge as it runs the task.
Notes
l Microsoft® Word® needs to be installed for this task to be functional and to test the
connection.
l Microsoft Word must not be currently opened when the automation task runs.
l Microsoft Word 2003 and up are supported.
l While debugging this task, the printer shows the message that the document can not be
printed. This message is normal and will not appear when running a live configuration.
l
The task uses a printer queue set with the “PReS Word to PDF Printer” driver, which is
created and set by default on-the-fly the first time a Microsoft® Word® Documents to PDF
Conversion action task is run. This printer cannot be shared on the network in order to
avoid confusion from network users, however it is shared between all Microsoft® Word®
Document to PDF action tasks on the same system.
