Prinergy Connect 5.2 UserGuide - page 1101

Note: If you create a populated layout file in Preps Ganging and the imposed PDF
files are on the Prinergy server, (and for Mac computers, if your shares are
mounted as SMB), Prinergy automatically adds your PDF files to the
Input Files
list
when you import the PJTF or JDF into your Prinergy job.
Tip: Using Rules-Based Automation, you can create a rule to refine pages when
input files are added.
