l .OL-template: A Designer Template file (see "Templates" on page105). Is linked to a
data mapping configuration by default, but not necessarily.
l .OL-datamodel: A data model file which can be imported or exported into either a data
mapping configuration or a template. Contains a list of fields and their data type (date,
currency, string, etc). See The Data Model.
l Print Presets are used when generating a job, ready for output, from Designer (see
"Generating Print output" on page979) or through Workflow (see Print processes with OL
Connect tasks).
l .OL-jobpreset: A Job Creation Preset file has settings for data filtering and sorting,
grouping (groups are used to split the print output), adding metadata fields, and
finishing options that override the template's Media and Section settings. (See "Job
Creation Presets" on page985.)
l .OL-outputpreset: An Output Creation Preset file is used to generate the actual
print output in the appropriate format (pcl, pdf, etc). It includes print settings such as
impositioning (N-up, cut & stack), inserter marks, tray settings, separation etc. (See
"Output Creation Presets" on page987.)
l .OL-package: A transfer file used to package one or many of the above files (the data
model being part of both the template and the data mapping configuration). Created by
using the File > Package dialog. (See "Package dialog" on page516.)
l .OL-script: One or more Designer scripts. Scripts personalize the output of a template.
They are either added via wizards (see "Personalizing content" on page334) or self-
written (see "Writing your own scripts" on page389). They can also be imported or
exported from the Scripts pane in Designer when a template is open.
l .OL-printerdef: A Printer Definition File is used by the Output Creation Preset (see
"Output Creation Presets Wizard" on page696) to determine what type of output to
produce. These definition files are generated by an internal application that is not
currently distributed outside of OL, but the definition files themselves can be provided.
