A pre-job is similar to a job, but is used when you want to store elements that are used in more than one job.

Pre-jobs are useful in these ways:

• You can automatically create jobs by dropping exported jobs into pre-job hot folders.
• You can use a pre-job as a place to collect elements that are used in many jobs, such as logos.
• Customers using Insite Prepress Portal can upload files to them.

Pre-jobs are visible in the Pre-Jobs view of Job Finder.
Note: You can convert a pre-job into a job by selecting File > Move to Job in Job Finder.
