- Why are the four parameters Imposition Plans,Surfaces, Separations, and Signatures mutually exclusive in the Perform Final Output action?
Final output can only be performed on one imposition object (plan, surface, separation, or signature) at a time. You couldn't simultaneously output a signature and a surface at the same time, for example. - Under what circumstances is it necessary to provide a parameter value for only one of these imposition parameters?
When the imposition object is known at rule set runtime, then that object must be specified at rule set creation time. For example, if the resulting event leading into the Final Output action is from a Signature Full event, then the Final Output action must deal with signatures only. - Under what circumstances is it valid to provide a parameter value for all of these imposition parameters?
If the trigger event is a Manual Trigger, then we don't know at runtime which of the four possible imposition objects we will have to process, so it's valid to accommodate all four at rule set creation time. At runtime, only the manually-selected imposition object will be processed by the Final Output action. - Name two ways to identify a set of mutually exclusive action parameters.
By their blue shading and by the parameter description at the bottom of the action configuration window. - Would this rule set need to change for different XML files?
No, this is the power of using intent to drive a workflow. The intent can (and will) change, but a well-written rule set needn't.
