Create Job
The Create Job action task prepares a series of print content items for output generation. A Job
is not actual contents but simply a collection of content items ready to be printed.
See also: "About printing" on page110.
Input
The task expects to have a valid Print Content Set, output from the "Create Print Content" on
page640 task, or the result of the "Retrieve Items" on page664 task set to retrieve either
Content Items or a Content Set.
Note
The result of a Retrieve Items task cannot be used with a Job Creation Preset. Use the
IDs in the metadata instead (see the Properties below).
Processing
The task prepares the content items or content sets for printing, tagging them as printable. Only
the content items that are part of the job will generate output.
Output
The task outputs a Print Job ready to be sent to the "Create Output" on page631 task for
printing.
