where errors are being forwarded. In all cases, if your process continues after the error, the contents of the

Common Errors
Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks
because they are related more to the system than to PReS itself. Some examples would be W3813, W3830,
W3991, W4005. These correspond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission errors
on folders or files, etc.
Comments Tab
The Comments tab is common to all tasks. It contains a single text area (Task comments)that lets you
write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the OKbutton,
and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Notes
l Microsoft Word must be installed on PReS Workflow system.
l Microsoft Word must not be currently opened when the automation task runs.
l Microsoft Word 2003 and up are supported.
l The task uses a printer queue set with the “PReS Word to PDF Printer” driver, which is created and set
by default on-the-fly the first time a Microsoft® Word® Document to PDFaction task is run. This
printer cannot be shared on the network in order to avoid confusion from network users, however it is
shared between all Microsoft® Word® Document to PDFaction tasks on the same system.
l While debugging this task, the printer shows the message that the document can not be printed. This
message is normal and will not appear when running a live configuration.
