I would like to make a text file that is used the check(validation of file) between Inserter and printed-paper(PDF or PS). But I could not find this information to make a text file at the Designer or workflow.
Could you let me know how to make a text file for added some information using PlanetPress designer or workflow(into a text file for matching barcode info, customer number, etc)?
Is it possible to make a PDF file and Text file using PlanetPress designer or workflow simultaneously? If possible, Could you let me know or send me a sample file to make that?
It is currently not possible to produce two separate outputs in Connect. Besides, “text” is not an output format that we currently support.
Perhaps a workaround would be to produce the text files during the DataMapping, using either a preprocessor or postprocessor script that will generate those files in the same location as your output does, and once the output generates it will join the companion files. Assuming you have a way to name those files using the same nomenclature, this should produce the result you’re expecting. Of course, if you’re filtering the output and excluding some files, either you’d end up with extra companion files or you’d have to apply that same filtering logic in the pre/postprocessor.
