The Check Check Image Resolution verifies the resolution of images within a Print item. The user can check whether the resolution is less than or equal to, greater than or equal to or within a defined range.

The Check Check Image Resolution is available within Automation when creating a Production Configuration. It can be used in the following Operations:

• Check Print Item and Apply Fixups – this Operation checks the Print Item and determines which Fixup or Action is applied when the specified value is present or not present.
• Check Print Item and Apply Fixup Chain – this Operation checks the Print Item and determines which Fixup Chain or Action is applied when the specified value is present or not present.
• Check Print Item and forward to – this Operation checks the Print Item and determines to which Production Configuration or Action the Print Item is forwarded when the specified value is present or not present.

Production Configurations are used in the Workflow in the following situations:

• Create Automation Jobs – Apply Production Configurations to selected Articles or Print Items.
• Batch Processing – Apply the selected Production Configuration to the print data to be processed.
• Hotfolder – Apply the selected Production Configuration to the print data processed via a Hotfolder.
• API – Apply a Production Configuration to print data that is submitted to the application via the API.

Instructions on how to create a Production Configuration can be found in the chapter Creating a Production Configuration.

The Check Check Image Resolution allows you to verify the resolution of images with a Print Item. It can be used to check whether the resolution is less than or equal to, greater than or equal to a defined value, or within a defined range.

Figure 1: The dialog of the Check Check Image Resolution

This Check allows you to verify the image resolution. The following options can be selected to check the image resolution:

• Templates [1] – settings selected in the dialog can be saved as a Template and applied to other Articles or Print Items in the Operations Check Print Items and Apply Fixups, Check Print Item and Apply Fixup Chain, and Check Print Item and forward to.
• Resolution is [2] – use the dropdown menu to select whether to check for an image resolution that is less than, greater than, or within a defined range. The following options are available:
  • less than or equal to – the resolution is less than or equal to the entered value.
  • greater than or equal to – the resolution is greater than or equal to the entered value.
  • in the range of – the resolution is within a defined range. Enter the lower and upper treshold values – Minimum Resolution and Maximum Resolution – for the resolution.
  • Variable Content [4] – select the desired placeholder – Database Field or User-defined Field – from which the value for the selected method is derived. The following values must be present in the selected field for the method to be selected:
    • less_than_or_equal
    • greater_than_or_equal
    • between
• Resolution [3] – enter the desired resolution value to be used for the check.
