hotfolder

Post by DiegoAsterBR »

Could someone clear my doubts, I'm trying to make a hotfolder using the pitstop server, I created an entry with the name "input" and another with "output" I made all the settings according to the videos that the searches, I did all the email configuration as well and everything went well with the email test, but when I put it in the PDF in the input folder nothing happens, it doesn't activate the preflight that I generated which is a 3mm bleed.

It looks like your hot folder is disabled. When enabled it should show a white V. Right click the hot folder and enable it.

Check attached screenshots!

It worked, thank you very much, that was the detail, everything is working fine, just one question, when I create a folder many sub-folders appear, is there an option where only the folders that I created appear, which are input, output and error

Some folders are mandatory. These are configured at your setup, see screenshot in your first post.

When configuring a HotFolder it'll show the mandatory 'errors' in the lower left corner, see screenshot.
