l
PReS Fax: Outputs jobs as faxes. You use PReS Fax as an interface to WinFax PRO or Win-
dows Fax, to send faxes you create from documents. You can install multiple instances of the
PReS Fax service on your network, and have PReS Workflow send jobs to one or more of these
instances. Each instance of PReS Fax can generate faxes and dispatch them from the host on
which it runs, using a local faxing program, such as WinFax PRO, Captaris RightFax or Windows
Fax. See "About PReS Fax" on page278.
l
PrintShop Mail: Used to generate documents using PrintShop Mail databases and documents.
Communicate with it through the PrintShop Mail and PrintShop Mail 7 Connector Tasks. See
"PrintShop Mail" on page608.
l
Laserfiche: Used as a repository for electronic documents. Communicate with it through the
Laserfiche Repository Output Task. See "Laserfiche Repository Output" on page438.
l
PlanetPress Capture: Used to generate and process files using Anoto patterns. Communicate
with it through the PlanetPress Capture tasks such as the Anoto Ink Processor and the Anoto Pat-
tern plugins.
Start and stop PReS Workflow Service
As with most Windows services, PReS Workflow can be started and stopped automatically when a Win-
dows session is opened and closed. The other option is to start, stop or pause PReS Workflow manu-
ally using the PReS Workflow Configuration program.
Note: The current PReS Workflow status is always displayed in the lower-right corner of the
PReS Workflow Configuration program window.
Click Tools in the PReS Workflow Ribbon.
Then, in the Services Status group:
l
Click Start Service to start the service. A progress bar is displayed while your PReS Workflow is
being started.
l
Click Stop Service to stop the service.
When you stop or pause PReS Workflow, it immediately stops bringing new files into its pro-
cesses, but it keeps on performing tasks until all the files which are currently under process have
been completely processed.
l
Click Pause to pause the service. The PReS Workflow service temporarily stops performing
jobs.
Note: If you send a new configuration when PReS Workflow is paused, it will continue
using the old configuration when you resume processing until you stop and restart it. See
also: "Saving and sending a Workflow Configuration" on page35.
