In the list, select the components you want to import. The PReS Workflow Configuration
program lets you open and import any of the following:
l
Complete PlanetPress Watch 4 to 6 configurations, as well as PReS Workflow 7
and 8 configurations.
l Specific processes from Version 6, 7 and 8 configurations, including their local
variables.
l
Specific subprocesses from any PReS Workflow 7 and 8 Tools configurations.
l
Specific global variables from PReS Workflow 7 and 8 Tools configurations.
l
References to specific PReS Design or PrintShop Mail documents. Note that the
documents themselves must be imported separately.
l Specific printer queues.
5.
Check Overwrite existing components with same name if you want processes with
existing names to be overwritten by those in the imported configuration, or uncheck it to
duplicate those processes under a new automatically generated name.
6.
Click OK to start the import.
PReS Workflow Configuration imports the selected objects and automatically renames
duplicate items in the imported configuration.
Important considerations
l
When importing a PReS Workflow configuration file, resource files like Connect
templates, PlanetPress Design documents and PrintShop Mail documents are not
physically imported as they are not part of the configuration file itself. In order for the
documents to be available, you will need to send each document from Connect Designer,
PlanetPress Design or PrintShop Mail (see their respective documentation for details).
l
If you import a PReS Workflow configuration that contains a PReS Fax output task, you
must update the task’s properties and refresh the host name. Otherwise, when PReS
Workflow will attempt to output the file, an error will be generated.
Activating or deactivating a process
All processes are Active by default, but you may make any PReS Workflow process Inactive as
required.
