l
DPI: Enter the dots per inch (dpi) resolution of the output image. This property is enabled
for all output types except PDF.
l
Color depth: Enter the color depth of the output image in bits per pixel (bpp). The color
depth is measured in bits, because each pixel of the output image can be described with
a varied number of bits. A higher bit number allows for more colors. It also increases the
image file size. A 1-bit color depth produces monochrome images. 8-bits produce
grayscale images (in PlanetPress Design you can have 8-bit color images, but these are
reduced to grayscale if you select 8-bit here), while 24-bits produce full color images. For
JPEG output, you cannot select a monochrome (1 bpp) color depth. For TIFF G3 and
TIFF G4, monochrome (1 bpp) is the only Color depth option you can select. This property
is enabled for all output types except PDF.
l
Multi-page: Select to generate a single file containing multiple pages. When this option is
not selected, PReS Image creates a file for each page included in the output file. This
property is enabled for all output types except PDF and JPEG.
Add page number: Select to put a page number on each page included in the output file.
This option goes with the Multiple TIFF option and is only visible if either the AutoStore,
DocAccel or KYOcapture format is selected.
l
Data Stream group: Determines what is output by the Digital Action task:
l Use Digital as new data stream: Use the file generated by the task for the rest of
the process.
l Use original data stream (without document): Use the same data file as what
was input to this task.
l Use original data stream (with document): Uses the PostScript data generated
before image is created.
l Save a copy:Optional when the "Use Digital as the new data stream"option is checked,
otherwise is always checked. Keeps a copy of the digital output onto the specified folder.
l
Folder and filename: Enter the path of the folder to which output files generated by this
task are to be archived. PDF index files (PDI and XML) are also put in this folder. This edit
box is enabled when the Save a copy option is selected. To prevent each new file from
overwriting the previous one, you should use variable names. As with any variable
property box, you can use any combination of text, variables and data selections. When
multiple files are generated for a single job (such as for multiple TIFFs), each file name
includes a sequence number, such as in Invoice0, Invoice1, Invoice2. If you use file name
masks that include dots, such as Statement.%y.@(1,1,1,1,25,KeepCase,Trim) or Job.%f,
for example, you must add quotation marks at the beginning and end of the file name
(“Statement.%y.%m.@(1,1,1,1,25,KeepCase,Trim)” or ”Job.%f”). Otherwise, when the file
