Table Of Contents
If an automation profile creates a new version of a page that already exists in Drupal,
Drupal will create a new version of only the page itself; any pictures used in the page will
simply be replaced.
Drupal locations should not start with a slash (/).
If you have trouble submitting content to Drupal, a good place to start troubleshooting is
the "AutomationServices.Server.config" file (located at [application
folder]\AutomationServices_Data\Resources\Configuration). Locate the
"scriptRelativeUri" <entry> element and verify that the "Quark Automation Services
Content Uploader" page can be found in this directory (for more information, see "Installing
Drupal for Automation Services" in the Automation Services ReadMe file). Locate the
"imageFolderPath" <entry> element and make sure this path points to the directory where
you want picture files to be uploaded.
Another setting to check is the imagefolderpath entry in the
"AutomationServices.Server.config" file (located at [application
folder]\Server\AutomationServices_Data\Resources\Configuration). This
entry should be set to the same value as the IMAGES_ROOT value in the "Drupal Content
Uploader.php" file.
XML to XML
The XML to XML workflow lets you transform content from QuarkXPress projects,
QuarkCopyDesk articles, and XML sources into any valid XML output format.
• Transformation: Choose a transformation that accepts an XML input and has XML as an
output format.
• Save Location: Specify where you want the final file to be put. If you check the file into
QPS, the transformation must supply the corresponding metadata in a QPSEntityModel
output. Note that if you specify a path in the file system, you must use a valid UNC path
to which the Automation Services server has write access, and the path must include the
name of the output XML file.
If you save the output to the file system, you must use a valid UNC path to which the
Automation Services server has write access, and the path must include the name of the
output XML file.
Export from QuarkXPress Project
The Export from QuarkXPress workflow lets you export layouts from QuarkXPress projects
in various formats. You can export Print layouts in PDF and SWF format and Interactive
layouts in SWF format.
