| What is a project? |

|
A project is a file that contains all of the preferences and options that you specify for the placement, content and conditions for your job's scan marks. Once you have created a project and saved it, you can use it to print jobs for as long as you want, modify it, or delete it if it's no longer used. You can create as many projects as you want in PlanetPress EnvelopeNOW, generally one for each type of document you have. |
Before you start your new PlanetPress EnvelopeNOW project, please make sure that you have the following items or information in hand:
Document Sample: You should either have a PDF that contains a sample of the data your job will process regularly or be ready to capture a job from a printer queue. The sample's page size and orientation should be the same throughout the document and between all your jobs. If your jobs can be of multiple page sizes or orientations, you should create one project for each page size or orientation.
Your job file
should contain at least one of every exception on which you apply conditions. For example, if you want to insert a special sheet into each envelope for recipients in California, you should include at least one address from California and one from another state. Make sure your samples appear in the first 50 pages, as PlanetPress EnvelopeNOW will only show the first 50 pages of your document.
Hardware Configuration: If you have not already done so, make sure to install and activate the configuration file file corresponding to your Folder Inserter. See Hardware Configurations
Output Printer: Make sure that at least one printer is installed on your computer. The printer you choose will be where the PlanetPress EnvelopeNOW project will be printed.
Scan Marks: Refer to the documentation of your folder inserter to learn the definition and significance of each available scan mark and how they are used.
