Numeric comparison: This option is not displayed when either “Is found” or “Is not found” is
selected in the Operator box. Select to convert the strings from the String and Comparison string
boxes to their corresponding numeric values before performing the comparison. If you chose an
operator that compares numeric values, you should select this option.
l
On numeric error: This option is only available when the Numeric comparison option is selec-
ted. Select the behavior you prefer when PReS Workflow is unable to successfully perform a
numeric comparison. Select ”Return the error”, if you want the Text condition to fail altogether.
Select ”Return true”, if you want the condition to be considered True. Select ”Return false”, if you
want the condition to be considered False.
l
Location: You can only enter a location when either ”Is found” or ”Is not found” is selected in the
Operator box. If you select “at”, you also have to enter a specific line and column. If you select
“on line”, you have to enter a given line. If you select “in area”, you have to enter a range of lines
and columns. If you select “on the page”, the search area will cover the whole data page (as
defined below).
l
Compare to string: You cannot enter a comparison string when either “Is found” or “Is not
found” is selected in the Operator box. Enter the second string of the comparison in this box. As
with the String box, you can enter a static string, a variable or a data selection in this box.
l
Page range: Select Any page if you do not want to specify a precise data page. Select Pages to
specify individual pages or page ranges. The page range setting is only considered when either
”Is found” or ”Is not found” is selected in the Operator box.
l
Range: Entries must be separated by commas. Page ranges are entered using a starting page
and an ending page, separated by a dash. For pages 1, 3 and 5 to 7, you would enter the fol-
lowing: 1,3,5-7.

Invert condition result: Select to toggle the result of the condition (true becomes false and vice
versa).

you may also select specific weeks or months.
