Windows

system

You

must

copy

all

the

resources

from

each

printers

to

a

directory

on

the

Windows

system.

Understanding

the

load

process

for

Xerox

resources

In

the

Xerox

environment,

all

printable

and

non-printable

Xerox

resources

are

on

the

Xerox

printer.

When

you

print

converted

Xerox

jobs

on

InfoPrint

Solutions

Company

printers,

the

printable

Xerox

resources

must

be

available

in

the

Advanced

Function

Presentation

(AFP)

format

on

the

InfoPrint

XT

system.

InfoPrint

XT

must

also

have

access

to

the

information

from

the

non-printable

resources.

You

use

the

InfoPrint

XT

load

process

to

create

the

AFP

versions

of

printable

Xerox

resources

and

to

gather

information

about

the

non-printable

resources.

InfoPrint

XT

resource

directories

for

the

load

process

Several

directory-related

actions

occur

when

you

use

InfoPrint

XT

to

load

Xerox

resources:

AFP

resource

directory

InfoPrint

XT

creates

a

directory

for

the

AFP

versions

of

Xerox

font,

image,

logo,

and

form

resources.

You

control

the

directory

that

InfoPrint

XT

creates

when

you

enter

the

pdxtloadres

command.

The

AFP

resource

directory

is

one

of

these:

v

%PDXTWORKDIR%\resources\common

.

This

is

the

common

InfoPrint

XT

resource

directory.

v

%PDXTWORKDIR%\resources\

resgrp.

You

can

specify

an

InfoPrint

XT

directory

for

a

specific

group

of

resources.

resgrp

is

a

name

you

choose.

v

C:\OtherDirectory.

You

can

also

specify

a

separate,

existing

directory

on

the

Windows

system.

Include

the

drive

that

contains

the

directory.

Metrics

directory

For

each

type

of

Xerox

resource

that

you

load,

InfoPrint

XT

creates

a

related

metrics

file.

This

file

contains

information

about

the

resource

that

InfoPrint

XT

uses

to

reduce

processing

time

when

it

converts

a

Xerox

job

that

uses

the

resource.

The

directory

in

which

InfoPrint

XT

writes

the

metrics

file

depends

on

the

load

options.

The

metrics

directory

is

one

of

these:
