Adding Rules to a Rule Set: Advanced mode

Rules must be put into Rule Sets, which are named collections of Rules. A job definer can include one or more Rule Sets in a layout definition in a Job Ticket template. A layout artist working in a layout that is based on that layout definition can then evaluate the layout using the Rules in those Rule Sets (see ”Evaluating a layout“). To add a Rule to a Rule Set:

  1. Open the Job Jackets Manager dialog box (Utilities menu).
  2. If only one list displays in the dialog box, click Advanced Settings to show the Advanced pane.
  3. Create or select a Job Jackets structure.
  4. Select Rule Sets in the upper-right list.
  5. Click the New button to create a Rule Set. The Edit Rule Set dialog box displays.
