Copy files to Prinergy volume

If the files are from a location other than the Prinergy volume, this option is selected by default, so you can copy the input files to the Prinergy volume. If the files are located on the Prinergy volume, you have the option of copying the files to a different location on the Prinergy volume.

Enter the path or browse to a location on the Prinergy volume where you want the input files to be copied.

Overwrite all files with same name

If this check box is selected, if the destination directory contains input files with the same names, the copied files will overwrite those existing files. No warnings appear. If this check box is not selected, a message dialog will ask you to confirm whether you want to overwrite the existing files.
Note: If you overwrite a file, the new file will not be re-registered or re-processed. It is recommended to remove the original file with all its corresponding pages from the job before dragging and dropping a new version.

Process Selected Files using Process Template

Select this check box to automatically refine the selected files you are adding to the job. If you dropped the file directly onto a process template, this check box is automatically selected, and the name of the process template populated.
