PReS Image
PReS Image output tasks are used to make request to PReS Image, which creates image files
which it then archives or emails. Since this task is an output, it is not possible to immediately
act on the generated image before continuing. When necessary to immediately retrieve the
generated file, "Digital Action" on page302 should be used instead.
In addition to the job-specific PReS Image properties you configure in the task’s Properties
dialog box, there are configurable options common to all PReS Image outputs processed by a
given computer (see "PReS Image preferences" on page714). Note that those options are
specific to each PReS Image installation and that they are immediately applied.
The following describes the properties specific to PReS Image output tasks. For information on
those properties shared by various types of tasks, such as Other and On error properties, refer
to Configurations, Processes and Tasks.
