Outputting Documents

When at least one Task has been added, printing and conversion to PDF can begin. This is achieved in any of the following ways:

•	By using a file management application such as Windows Explorer to copy or cut* supported documents, Job Files and folders^ (containing supported documents) then paste them in a Watched Folder.

•	By using a document production application to save/write supported documents, Job Files and folders^ (containing supported documents) in a Watched Folder.

•	By using a Batch Job.

*CAUTION:

To avoid permanently losing a document, it is advised it is copied and not cut from its source location. If a document needs to be cut then pasted into a Watched Folder, ensure another copy is stored elsewhere or a Task’s Post Printing configuration option is set to Archive.

^NOTE:

In order for the Service to process supported documents contained in a sub-folder of a Watched Folder, a Task’s Sub Folders configuration option must be enabled.

When placed in a Watched Folder, the Service detects each supported document, compiles them into a batch, sorts them then outputs them to the associated printer driver. Documents are then passed to the Windows print queue then printed or converted to PDF.
