Internal or External Jobs

From this page, the Graphic Designer can decide whether to assign jobs in an image to an internal Photo Editor (by clicking on the icon Image Added) or to an external Photo Editor (by clicking on the icon Image Added).

The icon Image Added indicates instead that Local jobs have been completed.

 

Selecting Internal or External Workings will trigger Two Different Workflows:

  • By selecting External Workings, the external Photo Editor will be able to Download images from the WebApp through the button Image Added;
  •  Selecting Internal Workings, the internal Photo Editor will be able to Open the images directly from the WebApp by dragging the icon Image Added into Photoshop (or other photo editing programs).

If previously configured on the administration management, the box of automatic operations will contain the profiles inserted by the administrator. This profiles will be directly integrated with the working directories of Binuscan server and the plugin will copy the image in its input folder and wait for the output. Then it’ll copy the resulting image and it use it to automatically re-link the selected image in the InDesign layout.

 

Input and Output

...

Folder

All modifications made by both Graphic Designer and Photo Editor don’t affect the original image because Peppers creates a new version to work on and leaves the original one into the input folder.

A copy of the image is saved in the output folder and Peppers works on it as a copy. As soon as an editorial is archived in Peppers, all linked images are available into the layout.
