Batch processing bundles all the documents from a single Adobe interface run so it can be actioned together as a batch. It allows you to hold or release batches and update the priority of a batch so it can be processed with either a higher or a lower priority in the job queue. The background processor will continuously monitor the log and executes the documents as per the priority i.e. the priority is checked after each document print. This makes the process more efficient specially if there are multiple documents to process.
- In the menu, expand Base Modules > Other options > Data Interfaces > DI: Interface > and double-click Adobe Print Batches. DIO595 Interface Batch Detail panel appears.
