Output / finishing
Introduction
In JDF, the finishing operations like punch, fold and staple are applied on the trailing edge (left) of
the job, or the top left corner of the trailing edge (top left). To set the finishing operations on
other edges, a virtual transformation on he input of a finishing process must be defined.
Transformations are applied as follows:
1. Rotate the media sheet counter clockwise.
2. If Flip is specified, flip the media sheet upside down. After this rotation, the top edge is on the
bottom and the back side is on the front.
3. Apply finishing on the new left edge, or the new top left corner, after the transformation.
The media sheet is always considered as portrait-oriented, i.e the left edge is always the large
edge, regardless of the orientation of the content.
The meaning of the JDF @Orientation is given in the following table:
@Orientation values Trailing edge Corner
Rotate0 (default) Left LeftTop
Rotate90 Top TopRight
Rotate180 Right RightBottom
Rotate270 Bottom BottomLeft
Flip0 Left LeftBottom
Flip90 Top TopLeft
Flip180 Right RightTop
Flip270 Bottom BottomRight
Orientation (for finishing process)
Syntax for input
XPath: /JDF/ResourceLinkPool/ComponentLink[@Usage=”Input” and @CombinedProcessIndex]]/
@Orientation
Syntax for output
XPath: /JDF/ResourceLinkPool/ComponentLink[@Usage=”Output” and
@CombinedProcessIndex]/@Orientation
Description
In case several successive finishing are specified, the ComponentLink[@Usage=”Output”] must
be specified.
@CombinedProcessIndex is an integer which refers to the Process index on which the
transformation must be applied. The Process index is the position of the Process in the JDF node
attribute @Types, starting with zero.
Example: Staple dual top
