Output Presets

The Output Presets (or print output presets) dialog displays a list of available presets and a summary of their settings. This dialog can be used to create new Presets or to edit and update existing Presets.

The Presets are all stored as individual files, using the Preset name and a "OL-outputpreset" file extension.

Once saved, Output Presets can be loaded in the Print Wizard or be used in the “Send to Server“, or “Package“ options, to re-use the selected Output values.

You can also send the preset to Workflow to use it in Workflow configurations. See Sending files to Workflow.

Dialog Interface

Configuration Selection section:

  • Name: Enter the name for print output preset. This will become the print output preset filename, when the preset is saved.

  • Description: Optional description for the print output preset.

    Tip: It is recommended that you enter a meaningful description here, so how the preset is to be used can be more easily understood in the future.

  • Production Options: Select which of the following optional settings are going to .

    • Booklet Imposition: Select to add optional Booklet information. This opens the Booklet Options page of the wizard.
    • Imposition: Select to add optional Imposition information. This opens the Imposition options page of the wizard.
      This option is mandatory, if Booklet Imposition is selected.
    • Separation: Select to add optional separation. This opens the Separation options page of the wizard.
    • Add additional content: Select to add additional content to the output. This opens the Additional Content page of the wizard.
    • Add Inserter marks: Select to add optional print inserter marks. This opens the Inserter options page of the wizard.
    • Print virtual stationery: Select to add previously set virtual stationery.
      The virtual stationery in a Print template (also called Media) is in fact an image that is normally only visible in the Designer in the background of the template to make designing a template easier.
      If this option is selected, that image will also be printed. The output can then be printed on plain paper instead of pre-printed paper. Printing virtual stationery is also very useful when producing PDF output for digital viewing.

Chose a job preset selection:

  • Select the job preset that is to be used for the metadata, if any is to be used in the output preset.
