Using rules for PPD in output presets

1

I would like to turn simplex printing on based on a metadata value, but When I select the Plex Group, I cannot create a rule to use the simplex or duplex post script settings. I would like to do something similar rotating the page and color settings.

Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Within Designer, you can create two Print Context sections.

You can set one as Simplex and the other as Duplex.

You can then create a Control Script to call the right section.

A sample Control Script for this is below:

var printSections = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections;
printSections.simplex.enabled = false;
printSections.duplex.enabled = false;

if (condition duplex)
printSections.duplex.enabled =true;
else
printSections.simplex.enabled =true;

You can then add page rotation and color settings within the Output Creation settings.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Hamza
