Output Type choices:
l
Prompt for file name: Select to output to a local file on the hard drive. When
this option is selected, no other configuration is necessary. A Save As dialog
will appear to allow selection of the folder and filename.
l
Directory : Select to output to a local folder on the machine.
Selecting this will open the Directory Options sub-group, which has these
options:
l
Job Output Mask: The name of the file that will output.
You could write the Job Output Mask directly into this edit box (for a list
of available variables see "Print output variables" on page588), or you
could create a Mask via the Options button. This opens the custom
dialog: Job Output Mask Dialog.
The Job Output Mask may contain (dynamic) folder names, for example:
${document.metadata['Country']}\${template}. The
evaluated value of the Job Output Mask is taken as a path relative to the
folder specified by the Job Output Folder (the next option in this dialog).
The Job Output Folder must exist, but folders specified in the Job Output
Mask will get created if they don't exist.
l
Job Output Folder: The path on the disk where the file is produced.
Please note that the folder must exist, or output will fail when produced
through the server.
l

the print technology is supported by the system receiving the LPR job.

variable for the name of the Designer Template used to generate the
output.

rendered as a PDF before being printed through the Windows driver.
