You can import jobs and specify the number of copies as well as the print
order for each job using the Sign Flow Option
feature.
Keep in mind the following:
- Nesting, and Step and Repeat
are not supported.
- Ordering of jobs when
printing is allowed. The Sign Flow Option
supports ordered printing for RTL file format, single-sided PDF files, and
pages of a multipage PDF file, only if the workflow is set to split a
multipage PDF file into single jobs and these job types are imported in
parallel with a Sign Flow Option .txt
file.
- Only supported together with EFI VUTEk printers such as HS125, h3/h5, and
VUTEK XT, or EFI VUTEk MCORR printer. The Sign Flow Option allows sending jobs to a specific workspace of the
VUTEk printer when the printer is connected using an IP address. For
information about configuring a network printer, see Configure a network printer and Configure a network printer and upload file to
printer.
Create a .txt file
-
Open an Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) sheet.
-
Provide the workspace details in the first row in either of below
formats:
-
Provide a file name and copy count separated by a semicolon in subsequent rows
in separate columns.
Examples of the formats shown in step 2 are shown.

Items to note in the example images:
- A semicolon (;) after the file name denotes that the copy count
should be used from the .txt file. A .txt file must be provided with
the job.
- You should provide a semicolon (;) after the file name only if the
copy count is provided in the .txt file, otherwise do not provide a
semicolon (;).
Explanation of different formats shown in the example images:
- Row 1, JOB # or
WorkSpace Name, notifies the WorkSpace name (if available or to be
created on the printer side) to which the job should be
submitted.
- Row 2 states that file name is baby – Copy (without
extension) and it is imported with a copy count set to 10. The job
is imported with a copy count set to 10.
- Row 3 states that file name is Fruit_Another (without
extension) and it is imported with a copy count set to -1. The
provided copy count is invalid, therefore, the job is imported with
a copy count set to 1.
- Row 4 states that file name is Fruit_New (without extension)
and it is imported with a copy count in the .txt file but the value
is not provided. Therefore, the job is imported with a copy count
set to 1.
- Row 5 states that file name is Another_Job (without
extension) and it is imported with a copy count set to 10,000. The
provided copy count is more than 9999, therefore, the job is
imported with a copy count set to 9999.
- Row 6 states that file name is One_More_Job (without
extension) and it is imported without a copy count from the .txt
file. In this case, the job is imported and a copy count set in the
workflow.
-
Save the Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) sheet as Text (Tab delimited)
(*.txt).
