Image Color – This feature lets you sort images with different color modes into separate subfolders. Four folders for Black / White, RGB, LAB and CMYK images have already been predefined, which means you can simply enable the feature to start using it. If you wish to change the name of the subfolders, you may do so by selecting an entry in the list and then changing the assigned folder name.
Search Text – Text Search routing allows you to search the image caption for certain words or phrases and route them to subfolders accordingly. You may specify two folders, one to which images containing the specified text are sent, and one for images where the specified text could not be found. If no folder is specified in either field, the images matching those criteria will be stored in the channel’ s default output folder.
You may specify a certain word or a phrase( using quotation marks to indicate a phrase), and combine them with AND and OR operators.
Required fields – To use this function, tick the required fields in the list, and choose a folder for files where the required fields are filled in, and similarly a folder for files where the required fields are not filled in. If either folder is not specified, the files matching those criteria will be stored in the channel’ s default output folder.
Ticking Discard White Space characters when checking fields ensures that fields that are empty except for blank space characters are treated as empty fields.
Color Management – Color Management routing allows you to route files according to the name of the ICC profile embedded in each file, or according to its out-of-gamut status( RGB images only). By choosing the former, you may also choose a folder where files without an embedded profile should be stored. Choosing the latter lets you select a CMYK profile, the rendering intent, and the amount of pixels that must be out of gamut in order to route the file to the out of gamut folder. Note that when using this feature, images without an embedded profile will not be routed.
Input File Type – When routing files by their input file type Color Factory will scan and try to determine file types in the input folder regardless of their file extensions. To add a file type, enter either a four-character type code or an extension and the corresponding folder within the output folder to which the file should be routed. The three most common formats, JPEG, TIFF and EPSF are predefined in the dropdown list, but you may also want to add 8BIM( Photoshop PSD). By selecting Add unlisted types automatically, file extensions that aren’ t already in the list will be added so that you can associate a folder where the file type should be routed later.
