This process template section identifies device-related parameters for the output during loose page output.
Output Type
Select Absolute File or Printer to enter the path for a specific network device or file location.
Select Job-Relative File to enter a path that is relative to the location of the job folder.
Note: The default is Job-relative file and the Device Path box default is %JOB%.
Typing a path for a network device in the Device Path box automatically sets the Output Type to Absolute File or Printer.
Submit as Multiple Print Jobs
Select to submit a separate job for each surface that is output.
Available when Absolute File or Printer is selected as the Output Type or when the Delta option in the Render section is enabled.
Device Path
The default setting depends on the value selected as the Output Type.
- If Output Type is Absolute File or Printer, the default is Clear. Type the name of a Windows NT network output device using the UNC (Universal Naming Convention) path, or click Browse to select a file location.
- If Output Type is Job-Relative File, the default is %JOB%Proofs. The default value places the output in the
Proofsfolder of the job that creates the process. You can change theProofsfolder to any subfolder found in a job folder.
You can also include the following marks in the Device Path box:
$[jobname;n]$[ProcessPlanName;n]
Note: Replace the n in the marks name with a number between one and 99 to specify how many characters from the associated mark to include in the mark. Single digit numbers (1-9) must be proceeded with a 0 in order to work correctly. That is, 1-9 must be expressed as 01, 02, 03, and so on.
For example, %JOB%Proofs\$[jobname;06] for MyJobName becomes %JOB%Proofs\MyJobN.
