PlanetPress Image generates a standard UTF-8 encoded XML file that has the following structure and content
Name: |
Value: |
<Pdi> </Pdi> |
Each generated XML file has Pdi tags wrapped around its content. This indicates the source of the enclosed XML content is the PlanetPress Suite. |
<Header> </Header> |
These tags wrap around the header information of the XML file. The header information contains the name of the variable content document used, the name of the archived XML file, the date and time the file was processed, as well as the output type called the archive method. |
<FormName> </FormName> |
The name of the converted document (in the PlanetPress Workflow Documents folder) the Digital Action action executed to generate this XML file and its associated PDF, or other type of image output. |
<ArchiveFile> </ArchiveFile> |
The name, minus the file name extension, of this XML file (and its corresponding Digital Action output file). You set this name in PlanetPress Workflow when you configure the Digital Action action task. |
<Time> </Time> |
The time the Digital Action action task created this XML file, expressed as hours:minutes:seconds. |
<Date> </Date> |
The day the Digital Action action task created this XML file, expressed as year/month/day. |
<ArchiveMethod> </ArchiveMethod> |
The format you selected for Output type in the Digital Action action properties dialog box (PDF, JPEG, different flavours of TIFF). |
<Fields> </Fields> |
