PrintLink section of the Final Output process template
This process template section defines how Prinergy creates PPF (Print
Production Format) files during final output.
When the
PrintLink
section is enabled, Prinergy generates PPF files and
ink reports when you initiate this process template.
Note: You can generate PPF files without creating plates or film. To generate only
PPF files, on the final output process template, clear the check box on the
Device
horizontal bar, and select the check box on the
PrintLink
horizontal bar.
Preview Resolution
Defines the resolution for the plate preview that appears on the
press console viewing station. Select one of the following
resolutions in the list:
●
Low
resolution is approximately 12.5 ppi, which gives good
preview images.
●
Medium
resolution is approximately 25 ppi, which gives a
sharper preview image with more detail.
●
High
resolution is approximately 50 ppi, which gives the
sharpest available preview image with the most detail.
●
Very High
resolution is up to 100 ppi, which gives the
sharpest available preview image with the most detail,
depending on the plate output resolution.
Note: Higher resolutions give better quality preview images, but they
dramatically increase the preview image file size.
Output Type
Select one of the following options:
●
Absolute File
, and then type the path to a specific network
device or file in the
Put Files in Directory
box—or click
Browse
and locate the network device or file.
●
Job-Relative File
. A
%Job%
variable appears in the
Put Files
in Directory
box, indicating that Prinergy will place PPF files
in the job folder. To specify a specific location in the job
folder, expand the path.
Note: If you enter a path for a network device in the
Put Files in Directory
box, Prinergy automatically changes the
Output Type
option to
Absolute
File
, if it is not selected.
Put Files in Directory
Specifies where Prinergy places the PPF files that it generates.
Select a directory on a PPF file reader workstation.
