Job property defaults

Usage notes

  • A step that is based on this step template can be used only for PDF files packaged as .zip files.
  • A PDF job that is not inside a .zip package can also be processed by the step.
  • A step that is based on this step template cannot be used to process a .zip file that includes any encrypted PDF files.
  • The original PDF files are added to the final PDF file based on the order of the PDF files in the .zip or list file. For example, if you submit a .zip file that you created, the order of the final PDF file reflects the order of that .zip file. If you use the List batching method and set the Create .zip file property to Yes, the order of the final PDF file reflects the order of the list file. If you use any batching method other than List and set the Create .zip file property to Yes, the order of the final PDF file is based on the timestamp of the individual PDF files in the .zip file.
