00:00:07:08 - 00:00:09:11
In this
tutorial, we're going to take a very quick

00:00:09:11 - 00:00:14:22
look at how to actually assign PDF
profiles to different types of products.

00:00:14:23 - 00:00:17:23
So in this video
we're looking at multi-part products.

00:00:18:25 - 00:00:21:25
So the first thing we need to do
is to actually create

00:00:21:25 - 00:00:25:04
or navigate
to one of our multipart products.

00:00:25:22 - 00:00:28:16
So I'm going to go to my catalog.

00:00:28:16 - 00:00:31:16
In my case
I already have a few multipart products.

00:00:31:27 - 00:00:33:13
So I can either get straight

00:00:33:13 - 00:00:37:04
to the multipart settings
by clicking on this button here.

00:00:37:23 - 00:00:41:02
That will take me to the multipart
specific settings for that product,

00:00:41:23 - 00:00:45:10
or I can get to it
through the main product details

00:00:45:10 - 00:00:48:19
page itself
by going to this multipart config

00:00:48:19 - 00:00:51:19
button at the top.

00:00:53:16 - 00:00:54:11
Now what we're doing

00:00:54:11 - 00:00:57:11
is modifying the configuration

00:00:58:00 - 00:01:01:07
in my settings here
it's already showing the configuration.

00:01:01:07 - 00:01:04:16
But you might have a little icon here
saying show configuration.

00:01:04:27 - 00:01:08:04
Just click on that
and it will show the XML stream

00:01:08:10 - 00:01:10:09
related to this particular product.

00:01:12:05 - 00:01:13:29
Now here you need to add the

00:01:13:29 - 00:01:17:22
Infigo profile name to the name section.

00:01:18:01 - 00:01:21:01
In this particular line. Here

00:01:21:22 - 00:01:23:15
you've got parts configuration

00:01:23:15 - 00:01:26:15
type, user upload name upload,
whatever else it may be.

00:01:26:23 - 00:01:29:23
And then you've got required
check profile.

00:01:34:00 - 00:01:37:21
So in here you want to put
the name of your PDF profile.

00:01:38:09 - 00:01:41:28
And then you also have optional
fix profile.

00:01:42:29 - 00:01:45:29
Now I mentioned this
in one of the other tutorials on

00:01:46:22 - 00:01:49:13
Pitstop profiles in Infigo.

00:01:49:13 - 00:01:52:13
You do have the ability
to upload check profiles

00:01:52:13 - 00:01:55:13
and fix profiles,

00:01:55:17 - 00:01:58:01
with those names
being fairly self-explanatory

00:01:58:01 - 00:02:01:01
as to what they actually do to an up
loaded PDF.

00:02:01:12 - 00:02:03:21
Now you can use check

00:02:03:21 - 00:02:08:22
and fix profiles in isolation
so either one of those.

00:02:08:22 - 00:02:13:03
So if you want to just check you would put
the name of your check profile in here

00:02:14:12 - 00:02:15:19
with those profile names.

00:02:15:19 - 00:02:20:28
Just to clarify, being the same names
of what you've got set up in your PDF

00:02:20:28 - 00:02:23:28
profile, setup.

00:02:26:02 - 00:02:28:17
If you're just using the check,
you put the name of the check one here.

00:02:28:17 - 00:02:32:15
If you just want to use the fix
and not actually check

00:02:33:02 - 00:02:35:25
and provide a report to the user
beforehand, you can just

00:02:35:25 - 00:02:38:25
put the name of the fix in here.

00:02:48:14 - 00:02:51:12
Now, your other option
might be that you want to do both a check

00:02:51:12 - 00:02:55:06
and a fix procedure on a single product.

00:02:55:10 - 00:02:57:01
This is also possible.

00:02:57:01 - 00:03:00:01
And I've got another example of this here.

00:03:03:08 - 00:03:04:06
So what you see we do in

00:03:04:06 - 00:03:07:11
this case is
we've got our required check profile.

00:03:07:11 - 00:03:10:11
And in there we put the name of the

00:03:10:27 - 00:03:13:05
check profile that we've created.

00:03:13:05 - 00:03:16:02
And then in this optional fix profile

00:03:16:02 - 00:03:18:13
in our previous example,
we just left that blank

00:03:18:13 - 00:03:20:24
because we were only doing
the one operation.

00:03:20:24 - 00:03:25:19
But we'll put our fix profile in there
and that will then do the check.

00:03:26:19 - 00:03:28:17
It will provide the report to the user,

00:03:28:17 - 00:03:32:02
and then they will have the option to say
whether or not they want to proceed

00:03:32:02 - 00:03:35:10
with the automatic fix
that's done in the fix profile.

00:03:37:26 - 00:03:40:29
And that is all you need to do
for a multi-part product.

00:03:40:29 - 00:03:44:24
So now when you try
and upload the product to the part,

00:03:45:09 - 00:03:49:25
it will follow those profile rules
that you specified.

00:03:50:27 - 00:03:53:27
So let's take a look
at one of these as an example.

00:04:02:01 - 00:04:03:06
So this is an example where

00:04:03:06 - 00:04:06:06
I just have the fixed profile
and nothing else.

00:04:08:12 - 00:04:11:12
I'll go ahead and upload a file.

00:04:15:01 - 00:04:18:01
It's showing that
that profile is being applied.

00:04:18:05 - 00:04:20:23
And then it will give us
an associated report.

00:04:20:23 - 00:04:23:23
So in my case it's told me
that the certain fix is taking place

00:04:23:29 - 00:04:26:08
and gives me the ability
to download the report.

00:04:32:26 - 00:04:33:20
The last option to

00:04:33:20 - 00:04:37:09
mention here is
if we want to use an output PDF profile.

00:04:37:20 - 00:04:42:03
So just as a reminder,
this is where the profile is run

00:04:42:03 - 00:04:45:20
on the actual output file
that's generated by Infigo.

00:04:46:09 - 00:04:49:28
So once the order is placed,
the output file is generated.

00:04:50:06 - 00:04:52:29
And then the profile is run.

00:04:52:29 - 00:04:55:28
Now this is done slightly differently
on a multipart product.

00:04:55:28 - 00:05:00:17
So we still have that line in our config
to do with this.

00:05:00:17 - 00:05:05:17
However, we don't have any entries
in the required check or optional fixed

00:05:05:17 - 00:05:08:17
profile sections.

00:05:09:13 - 00:05:09:29
Instead,

00:05:09:29 - 00:05:13:15
we have a separate option up here
which is output PDF profile.

00:05:13:24 - 00:05:17:03
And we just want to select
from our list of relevant profiles.

00:05:19:01 - 00:05:22:09
And then that will get run
when the artwork is generated.

 

Incomplete
Step by Step Guide

Create your multipart product and in admin edit the product type specific config for the product. Navigate to:

Catalogue > Products > Product Management > Edit (Next to relevant product) > Multi Part Config

Click on “Show Configuration” and you will see a stream of XML.

Here you need to add the Infigo Profile Name to the name section, example below:

<PartConfiguration type="userupload" name="upload" requiredCheckProfile="Infigo Profile Name Here" optionalFixProfile="Infigo Profile Name Here" confirmPreview="False" />

The Check profile section will run a check on the media files uploaded

 

The Optional Fix Profile will allow the end user to "Auto Correct" their upload using any fixups that were added to the .PPP profile.  (making sure that Alter Input file true/false was set to true).
