  1. Read Prinergy Evo Client Help: Variable Marks and Imposition Job Tickets.
    This will introduce variable marks and how Preps and Prinergy Evo use them.
  2. Create a new Preps PDF to PDF job.
  3. Using the files from the Activity 20 folder, refine input files.
  4. Add refined PDF pages to the new Preps job.
  5. Using the Prinergy Evo ITP template ITP-Templates and the 8page signature, assign a template and select signatures. 
  6. Open the template and view the marks used on the signature you have selected.
    You will see variable marks that include these variables: $[date] $[time] $[color] $[process template name]
    For the full list of variables, find the user guide for your version of Preps and search for Text-mark variables.
  7. Read Prinergy Evo Client Help: Tell Me More About Variable Marks.
  8. Print the Preps job as a PJTF imposition file using Device: Press Sheet Size. 
    Note that Preps will generate only a PJTF file. If this were a Mixed to PostScript Preps job, Preps would generate an additional marks.pdf file. 
    For more information about submitting Preps imposition files to Prinergy Evo, review Prinergy Evo Client Help: Submitting Preps Files.
  9. Save the Preps job in your JobData\Your_Name\Activity 20 folder.
    You will use this job in a later learning activity.  
  10. Submit the PJTF imposition file to Prinergy Evo for output processing to proof as Prinergy Virtual Proofing System software preview files. 
  11. Track the progress of your process in the Process Viewer in Prinergy Evo.
  12. Open the Prinergy Virtual Proofing System software preview files generated by Prinergy Evo and look for the text marks used on each separation.
    Observe that Prinergy Evo has replaced the text variables with specific information about the files.
