Build PDF control file 1

Specifies the path and file name of the control file that the system uses for this step. For example, the control file can tell the system how to create barcodes, hidden areas, and text. You use RICOH ProcessDirector Plug-in for Adobe Acrobat to create this control file. You can also select a step resource object as the value for the property instead of providing a path and filename. Using a step resource lets you change the specific file without editing all of the workflows that contain the step that uses the file.

Format:

Usage notes:

  • If you want to use this workflow for input files that require different control files, you can use symbol notation for the control file name. For example, use ${Job.InputFile}.ctl for the control file name, which sets the value of the Build PDF control file 1 to the name of the input file plus the .ctl extension.
  • You can add more than one control file to any Build PDF control file property. If you do, use a semicolon to separate each control file name.
