Workflow templates

Workflow templates link two or three process templates together to offer you more automation.
Each workflow template can contain up to three process templates of the following types:

• An import process template
• A refine process template
• An output process template:
  • Loose page output
  • Imposition output
  • Final output

You can create or modify workflow templates in the workflow template editor, where you choose:

• Whether to enable or disable each of the three types of process templates available.
  For example, you can disable the import process template in the import, refine, and final output workflow template.

• Which specific process template to use for each process template type that you enabled.

For example, you can choose the 2ndRefine process template as the Refine process template used by the Import, Refine, and Final Output workflow template.

Prinergy offers these types of workflow templates, which are named after the process templates they contain:

• Import, refine, and loose page output workflow template
• Import, refine, and imposition output workflow template
• Import, refine, and final output workflow template

In workflow templates with loose page output, you can output to multiple proofing devices in parallel. For example, you can configure a single workflow plan to refine and output the following loose page output at the same time:

• Loose page proof to Virtual Proofing System
• Loose page proof to one or more hard copy proofing devices
• Loose page proof to vector PDF
