Hold and Release

The Accumulate action lets you hold back your printed documents and release them as a single document when you are ready.

This is useful if you are sending documents to another department or even an external organisation. Having a single large document is easier to manage than hundreds or even thousands of small files.

The collected batch can be released when you have reached a specified page count or file size. You can also trigger on a time out after the last document, this means you don't have to worry about documents being left in the batch. Finally the Accumulate action can watch for some trigger text, either in the content of the document or the document name. This is useful if you always print a certain type of document at the end of a batch.

Once the batch is triggered all of the standard Print Distributor actions are available to print to file, email, create a PDF or run a program.
