The Job Editor

Job Editor

The job editor allows you to view and change the settings for a particular job only. This is helpful if you want to reprint a completed job with slightly different parameters, or if you need to fix an error straight away from the job list. In the job editor, you can compare input and output data, view the processing log, and adjust the parameters for normalization, conversion, and PDF processing. Modifications made in the job editor apply only to the selected job and do not affect your permanent resources or other jobs.

Fix job errors straight away from the job list.

Edit single jobs with the job editor

If you want to modify the settings for a particular job without altering your resources, you can do so using the job editor. You can open it from any list under Jobs, except the In Progress list.

  1. From the Jobs tab, select the list entry that contains the job to edit.

    For our example, we want to edit the settings of failed job, so we select Errors.

  2. Right-click on the job whose settings you want to adjust and choose Edit.... Alternatively you can select the job and click the Edit button from the ribbon.

    Access the Job Editor

    The Job Editor will open, showing several tabs.

  3. Adjust the job settings for Normalization, Conversion, and PDF processing according to your needs.
    The job from our example failed because there was no profile attached, so we open the Normalization tab and define the profile that should be used under Input Color Space > Use the Following ICC profile.

  4. You can also compare the input information with the output information under Compare or view the job's processing history under Log.

  5. Once you have made all your changes, click on Process Job to restart the job with the new settings applied.
    Modifications made in the job editor apply only to the selected job, your resource templates will not be changed. If you want to apply certain changes to your jobs in general, please open the client's Resources tab and adjust the relevant resource template itself.
