l
VDX: The output will be a PDF file with some PPML code inside of it to enhance
performance by doing caching/image reusing. The output can only be used on
devices that support the VDX technology.
l
DPI: Enter the dots per inch (dpi) resolution of the output image. This property is enabled
for all output types except PDF.
l
Color depth: Enter the color depth of the output image in bits per pixel (bpp). The color
depth is measured in bits, because each pixel of the output image can be described with
a varied number of bits. A higher bit number allows for more colors. It also increases the
image file size. A 1-bit color depth produces monochrome images. 8-bits produce
grayscale images (in PlanetPress Design you can have 8-bit color images, but these are
reduced to grayscale if you select 8-bit here), while 24-bits produce full color images. For
JPEG output, you cannot select a monochrome (1 bpp) color depth. For TIFF G3 and
TIFF G4, monochrome (1 bpp) is the only Color depth option you can select. This property
is enabled for all output types except PDF.
l
Multi-page: Select to generate a single file containing multiple pages. When this option is
not selected, PlanetPress Image creates a file for each page included in the output file.
This property is enabled for all output types except PDF and JPEG.
l
Add page number: Select to put a page number on each page included in the output file.
This option goes with the Multiple TIFF option and is only visible if either the AutoStore,
DocAccel or KYOcapture format is selected.
l
Archive output: Select to archive generated files. If you select this option, you must enter
a folder path in the Archive folder box and a name in the File name box.
l
Send Email: Select to send the generated file via email. You enter the emailing
properties in the Login, Recipients, and Attachment(s) tabs. Note that the generated file
will only be sent if you select the Attach output file(s) option in the Attachment(s) tab.
l
Archive folder: Enter the path of the folder to which output files generated by this task are
to be archived. PDF index files (PDI and XML) are also put in this folder. This edit box is
enabled when the Archive output option is selected.
l
Filename : Enter the name of the output files generated by this task. To prevent each new
file from overwriting the previous one, you should use variable names. As with any
variable property box, you can use any combination of text, variables and data selections.
When multiple files are generated for a single job (such as for multiple TIFFs), each file
name includes a sequence number, such as in Invoice0, Invoice1, Invoice2. If you use file
name masks that include dots, such as Statement.%y.@(1,1,1,1,25,KeepCase,Trim) or
Job.%f, for example, you must add quotation marks at the beginning and end of the file
name (“Statement.%y.%m.@(1,1,1,1,25,KeepCase,Trim)” or ”Job.%f”). Otherwise, when
