Thumbnails (DocBuilder)

Like the Command WorkStation, Fiery WebSpooler includes a powerful
DocBuilder tool that allows you to preview and edit raster data. DocBuilder
consists of two thumbnail windows and several page-manipulation
commands (listed in the Page menu). The DocBuilder tool can be used in the
following ways:
• In the Thumbnail A window, you can see thumbnails of the currently
printing job, as it is processed, or of any raster data job.
• Using the Thumbnail A and Thumbnail B windows together, you can
merge raster data from more than one file, even if the files were printed
from different applications on different computer platforms.
DocBuilder's merge features eliminate the limitations of particular software
applications. You can merge raster pages of documents of different types, and
even different computer operating systems. You can merge color pages from
graphics programs with text pages from a word processor.
In cases where multiple users are connected to the iR C2100/2100S
N :
OTE
via Fiery WebSpooler, Fiery Spooler, and/or the Command WorkStation, and
one user makes changes to a Thumbnail A job, not all users may see the
results of those changes. If you are unable to view changes in a job, or if
selecting a Thumbnail window results in a message indicating zero pages,
then close and relaunch Fiery WebSpooler, Fiery Spooler, or the Command
WorkStation.
DocBuilder differences in Fiery WebSpooler
The DocBuilder tool in Fiery WebSpooler functions almost identically to
that in the Command WorkStation. For detailed information on using
DocBuilder, see Chapters 2 and 3 (for instructions on editing and merging
raster files, see "Merging raster files with DocBuilder" on page 3-12). Though
the interfaces are almost identical, there are some feature differences:
• You cannot scroll through the pages in Thumbnail A or Thumbnail B by
dragging the slider bar at the bottom of the screen.
• Thumbnail A right-click commands are not available; instead click on a
page to select it, and either click the appropriate button in the Thumbnail
A window or choose the appropriate command from the Page menu.
