Server-based automation tool – automate your Mapsoft plug ins.
Mapsoft PDF Workflow Server is a robust, server-based automation tool which delivers a professional solution for working with Adobe Acrobats Portable Document Format (PDF) documents to the server-based network. <\/p>\n
Mapsoft PDF Workflow Server allows task sequences for the following Mapsoft tools to be deployed and run in a server environment: Impress, BookMarker, TOCBuilder, ImagePlacer, DocuMerger, MaskIt, ContentScaler, MediaSizer, ThumbNails, PageManager, PDFSplitter, OpenOptions, SecuritySetter, InfoSetter, and Flattener. To do this, Mapsoft PDF Workflow Server utilises the power of Mapsofts associated desktop (client) product, Automator: a unique automation macro builder tool. Automator enables you to select a combination of Mapsofts individual publishing tools and create a sequence of tasks to be performed by those tools. This task sequence is known as an Automator configuration. <\/p>\n
Mapsoft PDF Workflow Server extends the functionality of the desktop Automator tool by allowing you to deploy its configurations within a server environment. <\/p>\n
The Automator configurations, (and the individual Mapsoft publishing tool sequences which they consist of), can be created under Mapsoft PDF Workflow Server itself, within the server environment. Alternatively, they can be created on a desktop machine using the tools in the Mapsoft PDF Plug-in Suite and then moved to a location which can be accessed by Workflow Server. <\/p>\n
Mapsoft provides one copy of its desktop Plug-in Suite (consisting of one copy of each of Mapsofts desktop publishing tools) with each copy of the Workflow Server. This Plug-in Suite is licensed for installation on one desktop machine only, and is provided solely to assist administrators in the creation of the Automator configurations needed by the Workflow Server. <\/p>\n
You use Mapsoft PDF Workflow Server to run the Automator configurations over specified watched folders. Using Workflow Server you can configure these watched folders to specify output file destination and naming options.<\/p>\n

Automator enables you to select a combination of Mapsofts individual publishing tools and create a sequence of tasks to be performed by those tools. This task sequence is known as an Automator configuration, and consists of a sequence list of actions\/tasks to be used in calling up those tools with different settings. Each tool can be added to the sequence list more than once, with different settings each time if required. Mapsoft Workflow Server extends the functionality of the desktop Automator tool by allowing you to deploy Automator configurations within a server environment. <\/p>\n
The Automator configurations, (and the individual Mapsoft publishing tool sequences which they consist of), can be created either under Mapsoft Workflow Server itself, within the server environment, or they can be created on a desktop machine using the tools in the Mapsoft Plug-in Suite and then moved to a location which can be accessed by Workflow Server. Some of the configurations can be more easily created using the Plug-in Suite environment as they interact with Acrobat. Thus, Mapsoft provides one copy of its desktop Plug-in Suite (consisting of one copy of each of Mapsofts desktop publishing tools) with each copy of the Workflow Server. This Plug-in Suite is licensed for installation on one desktop machine only, and is provided solely to assist administrators in the creation of the Automator configurations needed by the Workflow Server. <\/p>\n
Task sequences for the following Mapsoft desktop publishing tools within the Plug-in Suite can all be included within Automator configurations that are to be deployed and run within a server environment: <\/p>\n
The DogEars and AcroBatch tools included within the Plug-in Suite are not appropriate for use with Workflow Server. <\/p>\n
Once the Automator configurations have been created and have been made accessible to Mapsoft Workflow Server, you can then use Workflow Server to run the Automator configurations over specified watched folders. Mapsoft Workflow Server will automatically monitor those folders at pre-determined time intervals and will run the selected task sequences over any PDF files that are dropped into those folders.<\/p>\n
At a minimum system requirements to run Workflow Server are: <\/p>\n
Generally the requirements for running the desktop tools in the Mapsoft Plug-in Suite are the same as those for the version of Acrobat with which those tools are to be used. However, as an approximate guide, the minimum hardware and software requirements to run these tools are: <\/p>\n
