Move Files with No Processing

The Move Files tab is used to specify actions that are useful when moving or transferring files. This Job can be used when PDF specific processing is not required. The options available when moving files with no processing are as follows:

Move Files Settings

Change the File Name

Use this section to change the name of the PDF file before saving.

Renaming Options

Start with the current file name: You may use a file name based on the existing file name with some simple modifications. You may specify one string of characters to be removed. If that string is found and deleted, then the replace string will be inserted at the same location. You may also specify a prefix to use at the start of each name, and a suffix to place at the end.

Replace with new file name: You may replace every incoming file name with a new name. This is useful in some E-Mail situations. If you use this option in other situations, consider appending a counter or time stamp to prevent name conflicts.

Tracking Options

Append date and time stamp: You can add a date a timestamp to the file name as well. This will be added to the very end of the file name based on the options set above.

Append an incriminating counter: If you have elected to append a counter, then as long as this value is zero (0) the counter will continue to increment as each file name is prepared. If you set this to any positive integer, then the next time a file name is prepared the new value will be used and the counter will increment from there.

 

Save the File to a Folder

Use this section to save the file to a folder after setting the permissions.

Location

Folder Path: the full path to a local directory (on the server) to watch for files.

Note: This directory is local to where the server is running not the PAS Manager and so the file path must follow the format set by the OS of the server.

Save

In one ZIP file: when checked all processed files will be placed into a single .ZIP file in the directory chosen.

Name Collision Logic

When a prepared output file has the same name as an existing file the existing file could be overwritten. You may choose to have a unique name created by appending a numeric or alphabetic counter to the end of the file name. Be careful when using the overwrite option.

 

Post the File using FTP

Use this section to send the file to an FTP server after setting the permissions.

Destination

Server: the host name of the FTP server, such as ftp.example.com

Folder: the directory on the FTP server to watch for files

User: the user name to access the server

Password: the password for the user set above

Save

In one ZIP file: when checked all processed files will be placed into a single .ZIP file in the directory chosen.

Name Collision Logic

When a prepared output file has the same name as an existing file the existing file could be overwritten. You may choose to have a unique name created by appending a numeric or alphabetic counter to the end of the file name. Be careful when using the overwrite option.

 

Send the File in an E-Mail
