Database Upload Screen

When a document requires a database in order to be processed, the Database Upload screen will be displayed.

The Fields table shows all of the fields that are expected to be in the uploaded database, and their order. If your database does not correspond exactly to this list, you will be able to re-order them in the next step.

While it is recommended that the uploaded database be of the same type as the one used to create the document, this is by no ways mandatory. As long as the database you upload is compatible with PrintShop Mail Suite your document should output correctly. To verify this, make sure you double-check the softproof.

The Database file box lets you upload your database to PrintShop Mail Web to be merged with the document.

To upload the database:

  1. Click the Browse button next to the Source File box.
  2. Browse to your database file using your browser's File Upload dialog.
  3. Click on the database in the File Upload Dialog
  4. Click on OK.
  5. When the filename and path appears in the Source File box, click Upload.

When you click Upload, you will be taken to the Field Mapping window.
