Finishing Options
Use the Finishing Options page to force the use of specific printer finishing options, rather
than using any finishing options that might have been set in the Template's Media and Section
options.
These settings are only applied when producing print output. They do not modify the original
finishing options in either the Section or the Template.
Finishing settings can be set on various levels of Job Creation, such as Document Sets and
Job Segments. This allows you, for example, to staple Document Sets whilst punching holes in
Job Segments.
You can also have multiple finishing settings at the same level.

Finishing Options Table: This table, on the left of the Wizard page, allows you to add or
