Warning
The From page and To page boxes are only useful for printer queue (or printer
capture)inputs. They will not function for other types of inputs. In these cases, the
complete backup job is submitted.
Knowing What to Resubmit
When something goes wrong with an output job, a print job for instance, and printouts are lost,
you usually need to know the following information in order to resubmit the input:
l The name of the job. This refers to the name used internally by PReS Workflow. This
name is generated by the input task using parameters defined within the task. To simplify
file identification, you should consider using names that include both the name of the
original input file (if any) plus some details such as the current date and time.
l The number of each failed page. If a job contains 1000 pages and if pages 1 to 950 were
printed correctly, you need not resubmit the entire job, but only the 50 last pages.
But finding this information often poses a problem. A good way to find this information easily is
to print it using small characters at the bottom of every page. To do this, you have to do the
following.
In PlanetPress Design:
1.
Use a Set Job Info action task and associate a variable with the job’s name.
2. In the output task, make sure to select the option that adds the job information to the
document.
