This task creates CIP3 files (mainly PPF) which contain all necessary data for
the printing and further processing of a job.
Note: This InkPlanner ticket cannot be
launched separately. It always needs to be part of a 'task chain' preceded by an
Expose to FlexRip ticket. It cannot be connected to
Proof or Approval tickets.
Select the Plate
Setting File (*.ini), which contains specific information for
the CIP3 generation, like image position, rotation, compensation,
etc.
Select the
Press Configuration File (*.dat), which
contains data about the press and the InkPlanner output.
Note: Both above mentioned file types are created using the
CIPress Setup tool (installed with
FlexRip).
The name entered in the Output File Name will be used
for making files created by InkPlanner. This InkPlanner output will be stored in the
'output directory' that was specified in the 'Press Configuration File' (*.dat).
Page Side: select
Automatic,
Front or
Back.
Note: The option selected here has priority over the page side
option selected in the 'Plate Settings' file.
Tip: In case of an imposition file, select
Automatic. This will process the page side settings
typical of the imposition file.
