You can transfer a job from one Prinergy system to another by exporting all or part of the job using the export process template, and then importing it into the other system.

There are two types of exports:

  • Complete exports, which exports the whole job.
    For an export to be successful, the job must contain refined PDF pages.
  • Incremental or partial exports, which exports portions of a job.
    For an incremental export to be successful, the job must contain refined PDF pages and an imposition plan. 

The exported file has the same name as the job, plus an extension of .zip, such as jobname.zip. If you export more than once, you can choose to either overwrite an existing export file name or create a new export file name if the job name is the same.

All aspects of exports are controlled by export process template options.

An exported job contains most, but not all aspects of the job, as explained in the following table:
