Then, just drag and drop the loaded image (with Fileman) from the ImageBar into a print module, into tiling to set up the poster size, or into compose!

Notes

  • Supported units are "mm", "cm", "m", "in", "ft", "mi".
  • The x in 500x500 is used as a convenient delimiter but can be replaced by any delimiter (_,-, ...).
  • If no unit is given, the default unit of your RIP configuration will be used.
  • The unit shown in the job ticket will always be the default unit of your RIP configuration as shown below for MyFileName_1mx1m.pdf and Millimeters as the default unit.
