Job Ticket tab

Use the Job Ticket tab to configure job ticket profiles. Job tickets contain information about the document, and/or how the document should be treated. Tickets are logically separate from the document, and in some cases are inserted in front of the document file. Tickets can be processed in several formats, including Spool Header, Output Statement, and XML.

Only advanced users and professional service engineers should configure these profiles. You can access this dialog box from the Document Properties Profile dialog box during source configuration.
