Digital Action
Digital Action Action tasks generate the same types of documents as generated by PReS
Image output tasks (see "PReS Image" on page513). Since Digital Action tasks are not
Output tasks, the documents they create are typically passed on to the following task. The
image files they generate are always saved, along with their index files (if any), to an archive
folder.
Note
The Digital Action task requires a PReS Image license to be present on the same IP
Subnet as PReS Workflow, either on the same server or a different one with PReS Image
installed and activated.
Differences between Digital Action and Image tasks
l Digital Action is an Action task and cannot be the last task in a branch or process. Image
is an Output task, and has to be placed at the end of a process or branch.
l Digital Action can accept PDF/VT and PostScript (.ps) files as an input, even if they are
not generated by any PReS Workflow tools.
