TransformJobIntoPDF
A step that is based on this step template calls a Ricoh
ProcessDirector Transform or InfoPrint
Transform Manager, if needed, to convert a file to PDF.
When a job arrives in this step, the step looks in the spool
directory to see if it contains a PDF file:
-
If it does, the step passes the job to the next step.
-
If it does not, the step looks at the value of the Input data stream
property and determines whether a Ricoh
ProcessDirector Transform or InfoPrint
Transform Manager can convert it to PDF.
-
If it can, the step sends the file to the Transform
program, which converts the file and passes the PDF file
back to Ricoh ProcessDirector.
-
If it cannot, the step puts the job in Error
state.
-
This step template does not send jobs to transforms associated
with the Advanced Transform feature. Use the TransformWithAdvancedFeature
step template with the Advanced Transform Feature.

Usage notes
When you add a step based on this step template to a workflow, you can
also include a step based on the DetectInputDatastream step template in the
workflow. However, if you plan to process only one input data stream
through that workflow, you can omit the DetectInputDatastream
step and set the Input
data stream value instead.
