Prepare Set data
Preprocessing
This is to check if there are discrepancies in the job information,
and to create the image data of the disc and send it to the server
(*1). Once creating and sending the image file (*1) is completed,
its RJD (Received Job Description) file is changed to the INP (IN
Progress) file.
(1) TD Bridge keeps monitoring the folder to monitor.
(2) When a JDF file is found in the folder, preprocessing is started.
(3) The JDF file is read and preprocessing is started.
At this process, the JDF file is changed to RJD (Received Job
Description) file.
(4) The RJD file is changed to the INP file.
