Stationery - in the output. The other presets will not print the Media.
Only the selected Output Creation Preset is put to use in the Workflow configuration.
To see the exact settings, open an Output Creation Preset in the Designer: first select File >
Output Creation Presets from the menu; then click the Import button and browse to the
Configurations\Resources\Output presets folder to select the preset.
Note that the Output Type, on the Print Options page in the Output Creation dialog, is set to
Prompt for file name. This setting is overruled in the Workflow configuration (see below).
Workflow configuration
Whenever new input data appears in the Workspace\In folder, the letter template is
automatically merged with it and then printed. That is, if the Workflow server is running with the
Workflow configuration installed by the Project Wizard.
This project's Workflow configuration: Print Promotional Jobs, contains just one process: a
basic OL Connect Workflow Print process (see "Print processes with OL Connect tasks" on
page186).
It consists of three plugins:
l The Folder Capture Input task. This task retrieves all XML files that enter the
Workspace\In folder.
l The All In One plugin. This plugin uses the data mapping configuration and template that
come with the project, and the Output Creation Preset selected in the Project Wizard. The
plugin is set to handle the output 'Through Workflow'. This means that the task will return
the output file to the Workflow process.
l The Send to Folder Output task. This task writes the output file to a subfoler in the
Workspace\Out folder. It makes use of system variables (see Standard variables) to
dynamically create a subfolder based on the current month and year (%M_%y). The name
of the file consists of the original file name (%O), the current time (%h%n%s) and the file
extension. The file extension (.pdf, .pcl or .ps) matches the output technology selected in
the Project Wizard.
Both the Folder Capture and the Send to Folder task read the project's Workspace path from a
global variable. The value of that variable is set by the Project Wizard when it installs the
project.
