Send to Server dialog

The Send to Server dialog sends selected templates, data mapping configurations and Print Presets to the PlanetPress Connect Server or to another server of your choice.

  • Configurations: Initially this list contains the Connect template and data mapping configuration that are currently open, and the Job Creation Preset and Output Creation Preset that were last modified.

    • Browse: This button opens the Select Files dialog that lets you add one or more templates, data mapping configurations, Print Presets, and/or package files to the list. When you select a package file, its contents will be sent to Workflow; the package file itself is not sent.

    • There are two ways to make it easier to find the file that you need:

      • The Show drop-down list lets you select the type of preset that you want to open.
      • In the Filter field, you can enter (part of) a preset name to filter the list for matching presets.

      Tip: Actually, the path may not begin with 'C:\Users', as this is language-dependent. On a French system, for example, it would be 'C:\Utilisateurs'.

      Type %userprofile% in a Windows File Explorer and press Enter to open the actual current user's home directory.

      Select Preset: Opens the Select Preset dialog. This dialog lists all Print Presets found in the folder: C:\Users\[UserName]\Connect\workspace\configurations. Where [username] is replaced by the appropriate Windows user name. Select one or more Print Presets to add them to the list of configurations in the Send to Workflow dialog.

    • Delete: Deletes the selected file from the list of files to send.

  • Server: Use the drop-down to select where to send the files. This lists the Connect Servers and any other servers configured in the preferences; see Connect Servers preferences and Web Applications preferences.
  • Send: Sends all selected Connect files to the selected (Connect) Server. You can use the topmost checkbox to select all of the listed files at once.
  • Cancel: Click this button to close the dialog without sending any files.
