Table Of Contents
To make one document or a group of documents go into a separate file, the print job needs to
be 'separated'. Separation is one of the options to set in an Output Creation Preset.
See "Generating Print output" on page535 for a further explanation about Job Creation Presets
and Output Creation Presets.
Variables available in the Output
In the Output Module, there are some variables available that offer more control over how
templates are generated, or the data added to them.
Templates can be used in the following locations:
l
The Job Output Mask field in the Print Options, when using the Directory option.
l The Text, Barcodes, OMR and Image data available in the Additional Content Options
page.
Available Variables
The following is a list of variables that can be used independently of any job options loaded.
The Template object
${template}
Contains information about the template. The default use of
${template} expands to a name based on the template name. A
four digit sequence number is added at the end of the basename. The
file extension is determined by the selected output technology.
${template} is basically a short hand for ${template.base}_
${template.nr,0000}.${template.ext}
The 0000 in ${template.nr,0000} is a format pattern that takes care of
formatting the number with at least four digits and leading zero's. See
"Formatting date and number values " on page546, below.
Example
If the template file is C:\Data\My-Invoices-EN.OL-template which gets
printed to PDF, then ${template} expands to My-Invoices-EN_
0001.pdf
