Template jobs

A template job is a job that contains settings that you want to reuse in other jobs. Any existing job or pre-job can act as a template job.
For example you may expect to create the same hot folders to add input files or import imposition plans to each of your jobs. Rather than re-creating the same hot folders each time you create a new job, you can set up hot folders for one job and use it as a template for other jobs. This job becomes the template job.
When you create future jobs, you use the Template Job option and select the template job. The job folder of the new job automatically contains the copied hot folders.
The purpose of template jobs is to reduce repetitive tasks and save you time. You set up a template job once, then base multiple new jobs on it.
When creating a new job based on a template job, you can select which parts of the template job to include—for example, image search paths, job favories, and active rule sets.
