The Get Temp File object creates a unique temporary folder (TempFolder) and then returns three variables: TempFileName, TempFolder, and TempFilePath.

Anything in this folder path is purged when the process exits.

Modified Workflow Objects

Enhanced Modified Workflow Objects

Description

Process Editor Menu

Delete Directory

Enhanced workflow object so that the “c:\” root folder and any directory in “c:\windows\...” are protected from deletion or clearing.

Mode setting

Added a Conditional option to the object Mode setting, so objects can be conditionally skipped, quit, etc. when a specific condition is met.

Security

  • Updated Security objects so they support either a standard domain (domainname) or LDAP string (“OU=OrgUnit,DC=Domain,DC=local, etc”). When using any string that contains an equal (=) sign, the string must be wrapped in quotes to prevent the expression parser from treating it as an expression. The UI will attempt to add quotes if they are missing.

  • Added a Test Button.

    File/Folders

    Brightness

    Added “Sample File” and “Preview to Contrast” to the Brightness object.

    Color

    Email Output

    Added “CC” (carbon copy) and “BCC” (blind copy) options.

    Temp File

    This workflow object creates a path to a temporary file that is deleted when the process exits. This prevents filename collision or having to manually clean up temp files.

    The Temp File object creates a unique temporary folder (TempFolder) and then returns three variables: TempFileName, TempFolder, and TempFilePath.

    Anything in this folder path is purged when the process exits.

    Email

    Import and Export Nodes

    Allows for portions of a process to be exported and imported.

    Edit

    Add Barcode

    • This object now renders barcodes at their native image resolution for raster images (tiff, jpgs, etc.).

    • For PDF files, it will embed barcode images at a higher resolution of 300 dpi. This will dramatically improve the quality of barcodes in PDF outputs.

    • Added an Anti-Alias option to the object to help smooth out human-readable text font. This option should be used with caution, because it may also dither the barcode bars and lead to less crisp bars.

    API Client

    Added a Force Dispose to the log handler.

    Documents
